Health Department

Overview

Our mission as your Board of Health is to protect public health in our community. This means to control disease, promote sanitary living and working conditions, and protect the environment from disease and pollution. We work as a group to make and amend community health regulations, issue permits and licenses for people to operate businesses that relate to public health (such as food service, health spa, nail salons, septic hauler, stables, trash hauler, Title V inspector), and provide services and information to the community regarding individual and public health.
