When is a temporary restaurant license required?

Outagamie County Public Health Division issues temporary restaurant licenses to businesses or organizations that prepare, serve, or sell food to the public during events, celebrations, or sales promotions. Organizations such as youth groups, churches, and service clubs (non-profit) that prepare, serve or sell food to the public at more than 3 events during a 12 month period need to obtain a Temporary Restaurant permit.

The Temporary Restaurant Permit allows businesses or above listed organizations to prepare, serve or sell food at events, celebrations or sales promotions within Outagamie County (excluding the City of Appleton). Food service or sales is limited to 14 days for each event, celebration or sales promotion. However, the business or above listed organizations can participate in multiple events or celebrations throughout the state of Wisconsin during that 12 month period. The Temporary Restaurant permit expires annually on June 30.
