If your event will serve or sell any type of packaged or prepared food, or food product, or you are having any type of consumable beverage served at an open bar, a Temporary Food Permit will be required. These are issued by the Health Department. Fill out your application online, print it out and bring it to the Health Department at 2400 Troost Avenue, 3rd Floor, KCMO. You will need to sit for an interview with a Health Inspector, set up a time for your onsite inspection, and pay your permit fee. Final Temporary Food Permits are issued on site at the event after you pass an inspection by a KCMO Health Inspector.
