He gives Avenue's Restaurant in Concord a score of 96.0. Osborne, who has been an inspector with Cabarrus county for ten years says, " I was on the other side of the counter for 18 years (working in restaurants and the food service industry)." "I take time with anything I do." With its restaurant inspection totals lagging, Cabarrus Health Alliance is considering no doing the inspections at Lowe's Motor Speedway, evven though the state requires them. Last year, the agency completed only 73% of its required inspections. (JOHN D. SIMMONS/STAFF)
