The Albuquerque City Council voted to adopt the updated Food Safety and Retail Ordinance (FSO), replacing existing food safety ordinances. Dr. Mark DiMenna stated, “This will help further our mission to ensure the highest level of food safety protection to our community.” Mayor Tim Keller added, “We’re ensuring that our families can focus on enjoying their meals safely and confidently.” City Councilor Brook Bassan noted, “Bringing our food code in line with state, county, and national standards is a significant step forward.” The new ordinance, effective August 1, 2024, includes updates to the grading of food establishments and enforcement procedures. Public rulemaking meetings will be held later this summer for permit holders' input.
