Pensacola restaurant inspections in February: Five restaurants close

Unfortunately for some restaurants and the foodies who frequent them, the DBPR s increased activity last month led to five temporary closures.  Between Escambia and Santa Rosa counties, 243 restaurants, food trucks or businesses with concessions passed their initial February inspections. More than half of those establishments had even better news to share with their staffs, as 129 of them passed with zero violations.  But 37 restaurants between the two counties failed their first inspection. Five restaurants  three in Escambia and two in Santa Rosa  had to briefly close in February for receiving the dreaded emergency order recommendation, which comes with a temporary closure. 

COVID Impacts Annual Homeless Count

6:45 Sandra Averhart reports on the 2021 Point-In-Time Count of homeless individuals in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. This year, COVID affected the number of homeless and the way the count was conducted. The coronavirus pandemic has brought about some operational changes in HUD’s 2021 Point-In-Time survey of individuals who are homeless. WUWF recently stopped by Opening Doors Northwest Florida to check on its annual count of homeless people in Escambia and Santa Rosa counties. “The Opening Doors foundation is excellent helping the public, I give them props. Thanks much for helping our public on that one,” said David Kowalchyk. The 40-year-old struggling songwriter visited the Opening Doors Hub on on New Warrington Rd. Friday to pick up a hygiene packet and a meal. He says fraudulent use of his debit card left him unable to pay his rent. As a result, he’s been homeless for about four months. He’s been forced to take up a second job.
