Motel Sanitation

The Environmental Health Division is responsible for the permitting and inspection of 34 motels and inspection of 3 detention facilities located within the City of Dothan and Houston County. Environmentalists review and approve plans prior to the construction or remodeling of new hotels and motels.

Inspections are performed twice a year at hotels, motels and detention facilities. Hotels and motels scoring less than 85 are inspected monthly until a score of 85 or better is achieved.
