Except as otherwise provided in this Chapter, no person shall either directly or indirectly operate a Child Development Facility without first obtaining a license from the Director of the Department of Health or its successor agency authorizing that operation.
A separate license shall be required for each Child Development Facility. When a Child Development Facility is located in separate buildings on the same grounds or premises and operated by only one licensee, separate licenses for each building shall not be required.
Each license shall be issued only for the premises and person(s) or entity(ies) named as applicants in the application, and shall not be valid for use by any other person(s) or entity(ies), or at any place other than that designated in the license.
Each license shall state: the name of the Facility; the license number and type; the address of the Facility; the name of the program; the license capacity for each age category of children; and the limitations, if any, on services authorized. Each Facility is required to comply with the provisions stated on its license unless otherwise authorized under this Chapter.
