community events

Temporary Food Facility (TFF) is an approved food facility that operates at an approved Community Event.

A Community Event is defined as an event that is of civic, political, public, or educational nature; including state and county fairs, city festivals, circuses and other public gathering events approved by the local enforcement agency. A Community Event must be held on public property and the organizer or sponsor must be a non-profit charitable organization. An event may also be formally recognized by a local jurisdiction's adoption of a proclamation or resolution designating the event as a Community Event.

Application Submittal: Community Event Organizer and all Temporary Food Facility applications along with applicable fees must be submitted to this Division in person at the service counter or via mail at least 30 days before the first day of the event. The service counter is open at the Ventura County Hall of Administration Monday - Friday from 8 am to 4 pm. Physical and mailing address is: 800 S. Victoria Ave., L #1700, Ventura, CA 93009-1700

Environmental Health Division staff review applications and issue permits to TFF operators and Event Organizers; as well as perform inspections of TFFs at Community Events.
