Douglas County regulates Retail Food Establishments (RFE) by issuing licenses for restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations, and mobile units.
If you are building a new retail food space or remodeling an existing space, complete a plan review packet and submit it to our department for review. The plan review application fee is $100 and is collected upon the submission of the plan review packet. Additionally, a hourly fee will be charged for time spent reviewing the plans, seeking additional information, and carrying out final inspection(s). All fees must be paid before DCHD will issue a retail food license.
