What do the ratings mean?

Following an inspection, all businesses serving food in Champaign-Urbana are required to post placards displaying their grades in a location clearly visible to the public. The meaning of the grades are as follows:

• A green grade means that “the food establishment was found to be in satisfactory compliance with the ordinance and applicable rules and regulations.”
• A yellow grade denotes “less than satisfactory compliance.” Following posting of a yellow placard, businesses have the opportunity to improve compliance, with a follow-up inspection required to verify improvement to a satisfactory level.
• A red grade means the establishment is “out of compliance with the ordinance and applicable rules and regulations to the extent that it poses an immediate threat to public health, or a failure to act, resulting in health permit suspension (e.g., did not pay health permit fee).”
