CORRECTION: A previous version of this story listed that Hank Dietle's Tavern was cited in an inspection. The county website displayed an incomplete category, thereby listing a health inspection violation as for insects and rodents. The category also includes control means; the venue was cited for a failure to have closing mechanisms on exterior doors prior to its opening.
