Restaurant ReDort
By Curtis L. Culberson
Staff Writer
The College Station restau
rants listed below were inspected
from Mar. 2 to Mar. 6 by the Bra
zos County Health Department.
The information is based on food
service establishment reports.
SCORED BETWEEN 95 AND
100:
Mazzio’s Pizza at 1802 S.
Texas Ave. was inspected by Da
vid Pickens. Score — 96. Two
points were subtracted from the
report because towels were
needed at a handsink. Two more
points were subtracted for minor
violations.
SCORED BETWEEN 85 AND
90:
Kettle Restaurant at 2502 S.
Texas Ave. was inspected by Da
vid Pickens. Score — 89. A four-
point violation was cited in the re
port because a kitchen handsink
was inaccessible. Three two-point
violations were cited in the report
because an ice scoop was being
kept on the dirty top of an ice ma
chine, a reach-in cooler needed
cleaning and towels were needed
at a handsink. An additional
point was subtracted from the re
port for a minor violation.
Schlotzsky’s Sandwich Shop at
100 S. Texas Ave. was inspected
by David Pickens. Score — 88.
Four points were deducted from
the report because a vent needed
a secure screen. The report noted
that the screen violation had been
reported several times and that a
food service suspension was pos
sible if it was repeated again.
Three two-point violations also
were cited in the report because
some dishes were not properly
rinsed and sanitized, some potato
chips were stored on the floor,
some food items were uncovered
in a reach-in cooler and there was
dust on some soda dispensers.
Two points also were deducted
from the report for minor viola
tions.
J.T. McCord’s Restaurant at
2232 Texas Ave. was inspected by
David Pickens. Score — 87. A
five-point violation was cited in
the report because cleaning prod
ucts were stored above some food
items. Four points were sub
tracted because a handsink was
inaccessible. Two more points
were deducted from the report
because a handsink needed soap
and towels. An additional two
points were subtracted from the
report for minor violations.
David Jefferson, a registered sanitarian at the department, says res
taurants with scores of 95 or above generally have excellent operations
and facilities. He says restaurants with scores in the 70s or low 80s
usually have serious violations in the health report.
Scores can be misleading, Jefferson says, because restaurants can
get the same score by having several minor violations or a few major vi
olations. He says the minor violations can be corrected during the in
spection. Point deductions or violations in the report range from one
point (minor violation) to five points (major violations).
Jefferson says the department might close a restaurant if: the score
is below 60, the personnel have infectious diseases, the restaurant lacks
adequate refrigeration, there is a sewage backup in the building, or the
restaurant has a complete lack of sanitization for the food equipment.
The department inspects each restaurant every six months. Jeffer
son says a follow-up inspection is sometimes required if a restaurant has
a four- or live-point violation that cannot be corrected during the in
spection, or if there are numerous small violations.
Inspectors at the department are registered sanitarians.
New department
proposed to help
attract business
By Beverly Click
Reporter
The Texas Research League, an
Austin-based public policy non
profit research organization, has
recommended creating a Texas
commerce department to attract
new residents and businesses to the
state.
Jared E. Hazleton, president of
the research league, says economic
development programs are spread
throughout the state, leading to
many uncoordinated and under
funded entities needing centraliza
tion.
Hazleton recommended the idea
of a department to both Gov. Bill
Clement’s Task Force on Business
Development and Jobs Creation and
House Speaker Gib Lewis’ economic
advisory group.
The department would be headed
by a three-member board to be ap
pointed by the governor with the
Senate’s consent, Hazleton says.
A small board is more apt to work
together on projects, he says.
Dr. Bryan Jones, professor and
head of the Texas A&M political sci
ence department, agrees that a de
partment is needed to centralize
concerns of state businesses and
coordinate an economic devel
opment policy.
In hopes of attracting new busi
ness, the commerce department will
be in charge of areas currently not in
a centralized department, Hazleton
says, such as state marketing and ad
vertising.
“For years Texas was not paying
much attention to development, and
it still had a growing economy,” he
says. “Now, since the state has been
in a recession for most of the 1980s,
we see the importance of a public
policy program to attract people and
industries to the state.
“We are trying to reorganize to be
more competitive with the other
states.”
Jones agrees with Hazleton but
says the state must be able to attract
the kind of high-tech business every
one wants.
“What our state is behind on is not
specific economic development pro
grams, but major investments in ed
ucation,” Jones says. “You have to
have a good education system, and
without it you’re out of the ball
game.
“When the state isn’t sure whether
or not it is going to support educa
tion, it is telling Mr. Businessman
not to come to Texas because we’re
not going to provide him with the in
frastructure needed to have an edu
cated workforce.”
The Texas commerce department
also would be in charge of adminis
tering the Job Training Partnership
Act program and the economic de
velopment portion of the Commu
nity Development Block Grant pro
gram.
The federally funded job training
program intends to train people for
jobs to get them off welfare and into
the workforce, Jones says.
The block grant, he says, is a grant
from the federal government to the
state, with the state deciding how the
money will be allocated.
Usually, the money goes toward
developing local communities
through loan packages and tax
abatements for new businesses and
industrial and research parks, he
says.
“New businesses can get hit all
over the place with regulations —
some of which are legitimate and
some of which are not,” he says. “An
important function of the commerce
department will be to help these
businesses through the maze of reg
ulations.”
Largest paper
in Texas sold
to Hearst Carp.
HOUSTON (AP) — The Houston
Chronicle, Texas’ largest daily news
paper, was sold Thursday to the
Hearst Corp. for $400 million, the
Chrortic/e announced.
The Chronicle had been owned
by the Houston Endowment Inc., a
non-profit corporation, which, un
der federal law, must divest itself of
controlling interest in the newspaper
by 1989.
“We’re disappointed it had to
happen, but you go on,” Richard
J.V. Johnson, Chronicle president
and publisher, said at a Thursday
night news conference. “I’m not bit
ter. We’re all big boys.”
The newspaper, which publishes
morning and afternoon editions,
lists its paid circulation as 425,434
daily and 528,153 Sunday. The Dal
las Morning News lists its daily circu
lation as 390,987 and its Sunday cir
culation as 531,417.
The newspaper failed to respond
to a higher offer from William Dean
Singleton, a native Texan who
bought the Dallas Times Herald for
$110 million last year, said Christo
pher Shaw, chairman of Henry
Ansbacher Inc., a New York invest
ment firm.
“We offered $415 million 48
hours ago,” Shaw said Thursday.
“We said that was a minimum. We
had cited current financial data and
said that we might increase it but not
reduce it. We haven’t heard a reply.”
Singleton declined to comment on
the offer.
Houston Endowment, which is
selling the paper, was the charitable
trust established by the late Jesse H.
Jones and his wife, Mary Gibbs
Jones. Jones was a Houston finan
cier and publisher of the Chronicle,
which was founded in 1901.
The sale came one week after the
Chronicle eliminated 52 full-time
positions.
