Minor Operations Retail Food Establishment Application At times, the comprehensive Retail Plan Review and Application packet doesn t fit the operations of a potential retail food establishment because the scope of the business is minor. Examples of this type of business include ice cream freezers, meat freezers, and mobile sales of prepackaged food from a commissary. To that end, the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment (Department) has developed a simplified packet. In all cases, please call our office for consultation as to whether or not it is suitable to utilize the abbreviated paperwork. Complete and return the application to the Department at least thirty (30) days prior to the beginning of intended operation. $100.00 Plan Review Application Fee Completed Applicable Section Owner Information Form License Application Photocopy of the Colorado State Sales Tax License (obtained from Department of Revenue*) Affidavit- Restrictions on Public Benefits (if applicable) Within fourteen (14) working days of the receipt of the above information, you will receive a response from our office advising of approval or disapproval of the submitted plans.
