AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to exempt certain facilities that provide custodial care to 12 or fewer adults or children in a home from regulations typically applied to restaurants. Specifically, it adds exemptions for home-based child care facilities, adult day centers, assisted living facilities, children's residential facilities, child-caring institutions, group homes, recovery residences, and residential crisis stabilization services, provided these facilities are defined by the regulations of the State Board of Social Services or the State Board of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services, and care for no more than 12 individuals in a home setting. These exemptions are intended to reduce regulatory burdens on smaller, home-based care providers.
