Child Care Licensing Procedure Manual
When a second licensing study visit is necessary to confirm that all the applicable rules on the checklist are met, the licensee notifies the licensing specialist that s/he is ready for the second on-site visit. The licensing specialist conducts this second on-site licensing study relying on the same checklist information gathered at the initial licensing study visit.
Only those items that were not met at the time of the initial licensing study visit must be verified on the second visit unless more than 60 business days has elapsed since the first visit. If more than 60 business days has elapsed since the first visit, all rules on the checklist must be re-verified.
The licensing manager/licensing supervisor may permit the licensing specialist to conduct a third on-site visit if the licensing specialist believes that the licensee is likely to meet all applicable rules for approval of the temporary relocation by the third visit. No more than three licensing visits should be made.
