About each permit
Food Service / Health Permit
This is a state ADPH function, not a Lee County department — the Lee County Health Department is ADPH's own local field office for the eleven-county East Central District, and it covers food-service establishments, mobile food units, and childcare facilities that prepare or serve food on-site throughout Lee County, including inside Auburn, Opelika, Smiths Station and every smaller municipality. A childcare center in Lee County that prepares or serves food on-site needs this same ADPH permit, or written health-department approval of its food-service plan, as part of its state DHR childcare-licensing application — that is why childcare is included among the industries covered here. This permit is separate from, and in addition to, the general county privilege license recorded above and any municipal business license that also applies at the same location.
