Reshuffling costs a job but may add restaurant inspections
C C Kirk Hammer, departing director of the Food Service and Lodging Board in Topeka, says dissolving the board and moving duties to the health division could boost inspections at Kansas restaurants. He notes the old board performed about 1.6 inspections per year per establishment with nine inspectors and one chief, and that the new system may allow more frequent checks and local contracting, though industry self regulation is reduced. Hammer, 51, has not found another job yet.
