A. No person meeting the definition of a daycare employee or volunteers at a daycare shall be a daycare employee or a volunteer at any daycare facility or perform services for a daycare provider within the city without having obtained the appropriate license issued under the provisions of this chapter. Provided, however, that employee-applicants may be hired and a volunteer may volunteer to assist in providing care, after having made application, and only while results of the criminal history check are pending, and may continue to assist in providing daycare, until the license is denied or issued. It shall be a violation of this chapter for any employee-applicant or volunteer to continue at the daycare after denial of the license, or any provider to continue to use the services of an employee-applicant or volunteer after the denial of the license or prior to the employee-applicant or volunteer having filed an application.
B. Applicants for a daycare employee license or volunteers at a daycare shall complete an application form provided by the chief of police or the chief's designee supplying all requested information and providing authorizations necessary to obtain complete criminal history checks, as set forth herein. Failure to provide the necessary information or authorizations shall be grounds to deny a license.
C. Any resident twelve (12) years of age or older that resides at a premises providing daycare must have criminal history check processed by the police department and which history must show no issues that would disqualify the daycare for having the resident on the premises. (Ord. 656 §2, 2008)
