Complaint based inspections are to be disclosed when the complaint is substantiated and upon conducting a risk assessment, the board of health has determined that the premises requires an on-site inspection. Reports must remain posted for two years.” Consumption and Treatment Services Compliance and Enforcement Protocol, 2021 (or as current).
