SUMMARY:
Child care; family day homes. Authorizes the Commissioner of Social Services to grant a variance to the minimum standards for licensed family day homes concerning ratios of adults to children when the Commissioner, with input from the director of the local department of social services, determines that (i) a licensee or applicant has demonstrated that the regulation regarding staffing ratios diminishes the availability of necessary child care and imposes financial hardship and (ii) the variance would not adversely affect the safety and well-being of children in care. The provision applies only in counties with a population of less than 40,000.
