This handout is a guideline provided for persons interested in opening a food establishment
within the city limits of Frisco. It is our intention that this information be utilized by architects,
contractors, builders, and owners so that new and remodeling construction may fully meet the
Frisco Health Codes. These are Health & Food Safety requirements only. These requirements
are to be used in addition to requirements of other City departments and divisions, and are not
to be interpreted as replacing other Department's requirements in any way. A list of all
requirements may be reviewed in the City of Frisco’s Health Ordinance. Please obtain a copy of
the Health Ordinance and all Ordinances from the City Secretary’s Office at 972.292.5020.
NEW BUSINESS? TAKING OVER AN EXISTING BUSINESS? MAKING CHANGES?
Please contact Health & Food Safety at (972) 292-5304 or e-mail to health@friscotexas.gov for
an inspection prior to opening. A permit will be issued when all requirements are met.
