Jeff Kolin, Recreation Superintendent
APPLICATION FOR CHILD CARE LICENSE
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution No. 85-30 and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute
the agreement to permit an application for a State Child Care License.
BACKGROUND:
Assembly Bill 469 which became law in January of 1985 requires all agencies
which provide Tiny Tot programs to become licensed by the State Department of
Social Services. The Community Services Department currently operates a Tiny
Tot program at Lambert School. The program has an average of 90 children
enrolled per month. The program previously had been exempt from licensing
requirements because of its limited operating hours.
The new legislation requires the program to become licensed in order to continue
its operation. Health screening and fingerprinting of all instructors will be
required as part of the process. Staff is in the process of completing the
application and with council authorization will submit it to the Department of
Social Services for approval. Licensing of the program will allow the City to
continue to provide this worhwhile service to its residents.
