"A license issued under this chapter shall expire two years from the effective date of the permit. The superintendent may extend or shorten the duration of licensure periods for a child day program or family day system whenever, in the superintendent's sole discretion, it is administratively necessary to redistribute the workload to improve staff utilization. "
This part is totally ambiguous and misleading. Why are you changing a straightforward process with the right to appeal to something authoritarian and discretionary? Why does the superintendent have the right to shorten a period of two years of a license at his sole discretion? Before, the rules were more straightforward, but now, you are taking away the appeal process. This is a total government intrusion into the daycare business, which is not easy to keep going.
What does that mean, "it is administratively necessary to distribute the workload to improve staff utilization"? Please tell me if you're referring to you or to our business. If it is about us. How are you going to determine that? We follow the regulations and laws regarding radio staff/children. What are you talking about? I do not know who wrote this new proposal; if these people were part of my business, I would fire them! This proposal is scary, and their goal is to eliminate Day Care Centers and companies they do not like! Are you doing this intentionally or because you are all very inexperienced in relation to this type of business? New regulations are supposed to help grow businesses, not destroy them!
Honestly, I do not like participating in this type of process with comments because, in the end, they do whatever they want without taking people's input into account.
