Overview

7-Eleven #34731A in Estero has been the subject of repeated focused inspection visits by FDACS since August 2024, primarily related to unresolved water and sewer documentation requirements. An August 2024 sanitation inspection initially identified a hot-holding temperature control violation for breakfast skillet taquito, Monterey jack chicken taquitos, and sausages found at 128–130°F, below the required minimum of 135°F; the establishment corrected this issue on site. Since that inspection, the facility has received four additional focused visits—in October 2024, February 2025, and twice in April 2025—all documenting ongoing compliance conversations with management. The inspector narrative indicates the establishment has been working to obtain and submit water and sewer bills as documentation of permit compliance; as of the most recent check-back visit on April 1, 2025, water and sewer documentation had been provided. A 30-day follow-up inspection is scheduled to verify receipt and filing of documentation. No violations have been cited in any focused inspection since August 2024, and the facility currently shows zero violations across all six inspections on record.
