Tigard, OR 97223
Dear Applicants:
The Washington County Department of Health and Human Services has obtained the plans for the
proposed George's Giant Hamburgers to be located at 11640 SW Pacific Highway
in Tigard, Oregon. It is our understanding that community water and community sewer will be
utilized at this structure. The following is understood to be planned with necessary changes and
conditions for approval noted:
STRUCTURAL REQUIREMENTS
1) The plans show a three- compartment sink. Each compartment of the three- compartment sink
unit must be large enough to totally submerse your largest multi -use utensil. The plans show
one drainboard on each side of the three - compartment sink. One drainboard must be designated
for soiled utensils and the other for clean utensils. An accurate test kit is required to test
sanitizer concentration in the third compartment of your sink. These sinks are not to be used for
handwashing.
2) The plans show a utility mop sink. Please supply a mop- hanging device so mops and similar
floor cleaning equipment can be cleaned and hung between uses.
3) If you plan to install an automatic chemical dispensing system at your three - compartment sink
or mop sink, please contact the local plumbing authority for information on the proper back
flow device needed to ensure that the fresh water supply is protected from chemical backflow.
4) A handsink must be designated in each of the food or drink preparation and food or drink
dispensing areas. Handsinks are shown in the front and back preparation areas.
5) All handwashing sinks including the restroom handsinks must be equipped with dispensed soap
and dispensed sanitary towels or approved hand -drying devices. The handwashing sinks must
be equipped with hot and cold tempered water. If self - closing, slow- closing, or metered faucets
will be used, they must be designed to provide a flow of water for at least 15 seconds without
• the need to reactivate the faucet.

wastes must have its liquid wastes drain indirectly to a floor drain or floor sink.
9) Floor sinks and floor drains must be located so they are accessible for cleaning and
maintenance.
10) All floor, wall and ceiling surfaces must be smooth, durable, sealed and easily cleanable. Any
areas that are worn or damaged must be repaired. Where walls and ceilings are painted, high
gloss paint is recommended. It is also highly recommended that walls behind cooking
equipment, dishwashing equipment, and the mop sink be covered with durable, washable
backsplash.
11) If acoustical ceiling tiles are utilized and they become soiled and can not be cleaned, then
replacement will be required. A washable ceiling surface is recommended for food preparation
and cooking areas.
