About the scores:
Hays County does not score on a standard 0 to 100 scale but instead tabulates total demerits. If no violations are found, a score of 0 demerits is achieved. Therefore, a higher score indicates more demerits.
If an establishment receives more than 30 demerits, a re-inspection is required and corrections must be made to bring the total score below 30 in accordance with the Texas Food Establishment Rules (Chapter 229 of the Texas Administrative Code/Health Services).
Look for more inspection scores in the coming year as the county continues its work in the Kyle and Buda area.
