County Refunds Available For RSM Restaurants: What To Know

RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, CA — Rancho Santa Margarita restaurants can quality for cash, after the Orange County Board of Supervisors voted to approve a plan to provide fee relief to county restaurants.

Under the plan, restaurants that were invoiced for inspection fees by the Environmental Health Division of the Orange County Health Care Agency between March 17, 2020 and June 15, 2021 will receive a credit or fee refund based on the amount of fees that were invoiced to the restaurant during that period, county officials said.

According to the county, if a restaurant has an outstanding balance of fees owed, then the restaurant will receive a credit against its outstanding balance.

However, an operating restaurant with no outstanding balance of unpaid fees will receive a credit against their 2023/2024 anniversary fee invoice.
