AB 2621, as introduced, Garcia. Child day care facilities: licensing reports.
Under the California Child Day Care Facilities Act, the State Department of Public Health licenses and regulates child day care facilities. Existing law requires the department, when it conducts a site visit of a licensed child day care facility, to publicly post at the facility a notice that indicates whether the facility was cited for violating any state standards or regulations. Existing law also requires each licensed child day care facility to make accessible to the public a copy of any licensing report or other public licensing document that documents a facility visit, a substantiated complaint investigation, a conference with a local licensing agency management representative and the licensee in which issues of noncompliance are discussed, or a copy of an accusation indicating the department’s intent to revoke the facility’s license.
This bill would require the department to post those licensing reports and documents on its Internet Web site.
Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no.
The people of the State of California do enact as follows:
Section 1596.819 is added to the Health and
2Safety Code, to read:
