Recent health inspections flag Northville eateries

Recent health inspections in some Northville restaurants found improper handwashing, improper food storage and more between September and November, according to Wayne County Health Department inspection reports. Many of the violations have been corrected. The presence of violations in a past inspection does not necessarily mean the establishment has the same violations today. Inspection reports can be found at swordsolutions.com/inspections/. Below is a list of violations found at a few restaurants in Northville. Deccan Bawarchi, 17933 Haggerty Road During a routine inspection on September 15, an inspector noted several problems at Deccan Bawarchi. ∎ During the inspection, employees were never seen washing their hands, even though they moved from food preparation areas to dish areas, to grabbing supplies from stock areas, and returning. Whenever employees want to start food preparation tasks or return from leaving after completing non-food preparation tasks hand washing should be done before donning new pair of gloves. Wash hands before putting on gloves and preparing food. Corrected through instruction. ∎ Prep line cooler was malfunctioning and holding all potentially hazardous food items inside between 52-54F. This included cooked chicken, paneer cheese, mayo, lentil soup, and cooked chickpeas. Potentially hazardous ready-to-eat food should be kept below 41F.

A Michigan deer wandered for 10 days with a plastic Halloween pumpkin stuck over its mouth, and rescuers say they get calls like it every year

A young buck in Michigan spent 10 days with a plastic Halloween pumpkin stuck on its head before volunteers freed it on Sunday, according to BroBible . The Detroit Animal Welfare Group led the effort and says it tracked the deer to Hines Park in Westland, miles from the Livonia neighborhood where it was first spotted. Volunteers tranquilized the animal and removed the bucket. The deer first drew attention after a resident in a Livonia neighborhood recorded video of it with the plastic pumpkin bucket stuck over its mouth. The group says it began receiving calls shortly after Halloween and posted on social media asking people to report sightings. It says it received several updates and photos but could not catch up to the deer, which was becoming weak and thin. The group says it was concerned that the deer would become dehydrated and eventually starve, as the bucket kept it from eating or drinking. It received permission from the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to tranquilize the animal if volunteers could reach it. The group also asked for help from drone pilots, including one with a heat sensing drone, to track the deer down. Volunteers waded through water and

Under the proposed plan, the existing four-lane road would be reconfigured into three lanes. Traffic would be reduced to one lane in each direction, separated by a center two-way left-turn lane.
