Application Requirements for a Temporary Food Event
Dear Operator/Owner:
A Temporary Food Event License Application for the Town of Brookfield Health Department requires the following:
  • Read the Temporary Food Event Guidelines document and keep it for reference.
  • The application must be completed in its entirety and submitted to the Health Department at least 10 days prior to an event involving 5 or fewer vendors (unless another time frame agreement has been established with the Health Department) and 14 days prior to an event involving more than 5 vendors.
  • A seventy-five dollar ($75.00) fee must be submitted with the application. If a fee is to be waived i.e. for a non -profit event, please obtain a fee waiver letter from the First Selectman’s office.
  • If the source of potable water supply is a private well, you must submit water test results within the last 6 months.
  • Out -of -town vendors/caterers will be required to submit a valid food service license issued by their local health department and a copy of a recent food service inspection.
  • In addition, should you be using the facilities of another licensed food service establishment to prepare food, a letter of authorization from the owner must be submitted stating you have authorization to do so.
  • An opening inspection on the day of the event with equipment in place and operational may be performed to determine if the event complies with local and state regulations concerning food service.
  • Events with more than one food booth/vendor: a Temporary Event Food License Application must be completed by each food booth operator.
Keep in mind that it is the responsibility of the food event/booth operator to notify the Brookfield Health Department in writing of any changes that are made to your operation (menu, floor plan, etc.) 10 days prior to the event. If possible, please do not mail your license application to the Health Department. Our hours of operation are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday 8:00am- 4:00 p.m., and Thursday 8:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation with our Temporary Food Event License procedure. Please do not hesitate to call with any questions (203) 775-7315.
Very truly yours,
The Brookfield Health Department
