Bill > HF2305

This bill modifies Minnesota's child care licensing regulations to require that when a child care facility (such as a family child care provider or child care center) receives a conditional license or experiences a license suspension, fine, or revocation that is accompanied by a maltreatment investigation memorandum, both documents must now be posted in a conspicuous location for ten years, instead of the previous two-year requirement. Maltreatment investigation memoranda are official documents detailing findings of potential child abuse or neglect, prepared under Minnesota's child protection statutes. The bill aims to increase transparency by mandating longer public visibility of serious licensing actions and associated investigative documentation, ensuring that current and prospective service users are fully informed about the facility's compliance history and any past incidents of concern. This extended posting requirement applies regardless of whether the license holder is appealing the order, giving parents and guardians more comprehensive information about the child care facility's regulatory status.
