Last year, as of late November, 10 restaurants in Champaign County were closed and received a red placard because of failed health inspections. But 75 failed an inspection but remained open, receiving a yellow placard — some multiple times. 

These failures were the result of both routine and follow-up inspections.

    How would the public know about this? It’s impossible to understand the placards.

  2. Lois Yoksoulian

    It’s not that hard:
    Green = pass
    Yellow = warning
    Red = fail

  3. Lynn

    Great job, inspectors

  4. Denni Hubert

    Love our health department..this county has over all VERY SAFE RESTAURANTS.

  5. Terry

    More reason to eat from home and complain to the cook

    I wonder what percentage of restaurants received only green ratings all year. This is a lot of yellows! And having had nothing but great food in several of them, it makes me wonder how seriously we should take these ratings.
