MODERATE

This bill amends the Social Services Law to update how child day care providers must display licensing information and household member counts. The main change is adding flexibility for the Office of Children and Family Services to determine the method and format for displaying required information, rather than mandating specific display requirements. This gives the agency more discretion in how providers present compliance information to the public.

Scope change

The bill's scope remains focused on child day care homes, programs, and facilities in New York State, but the enforcement mechanism for displaying information has been modified to allow agency discretion.

REQUIREMENT

Changed how household member information must be displayed from a fixed requirement to one where the Office of Children and Family Services determines the method and format.

Updated how toll-free phone numbers and email addresses must be displayed to allow the agency to determine the method and format rather than requiring specific placement alongside licenses.

Modified how inspection rights must be posted to allow the agency to determine the method and format for displaying this information.

TECHNICAL

Added co-sponsors (O'PHARROW, COLTON) to the bill and updated the bill number to A3899-A to reflect committee discharge and amendment status.
