Bill > SF4473

This bill, known as "Harvey's Law," modifies the requirements for licensed child care centers in Minnesota to use video security cameras. Currently, centers must install cameras if they are required to post a maltreatment investigation memorandum, which is a public notice about an investigation into child abuse or neglect. This bill expands that requirement to include centers that received specific types of state funding in the previous calendar year, such as child care assistance program funds, great start compensation support payments, or early learning scholarships. The bill specifies that these centers must have cameras in public and shared areas and comply with related requirements within six months of the funding being received and maintain compliance for four years.
