25 | The facility inspection was conducted via tele-inspection due to the COVID-19 state of emergency pandemic. The department has suspended all field operations and the applicant has agreed to conduct a video conference tele-visit with Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Amy Strother. LPA Strother met with Center Director, Catherine Schlager to conduct the case management tele-visit in 10/09/20. During today's inspection, no children were present due to poor air quality from recent fires in the surrounding area.
The application received by the department on 02/19/20 requested an increase from a capacity of 60 to a capacity of 90, adding an additional room to the license. An updated LIC999 facility sketch indicates that an additional room, named Roots & Shoots will be used. During a prior visit on 10/02/2019, LPA Strother measured 3 buildings used for the facilities current license, four classrooms and two outdoor spaces. Based on LPA Strother’s measurements, the capacity limitation based on the 3 buildings/4 classrooms and outdoor space was a maximum of 84 children. During a subsequent visit on 02/05/20 LPA Strother measured and inspected the Roots & Shoots classroom. The Roots and Shoots room measures sufficient for a capacity of 8 children. LPA Strother determined that the total indoor/outdoor space, along with numbers of sinks and toilet available will allow for the requested capacity of 90. The Fire Marshall approval was made for the requested capacity of 90 on 03/01/2020. During today’s tele-visit, the Center Director toured LPA Strother through all 5 classrooms. LPA observed in each classroom a hard wired smoke detector/fire alarm system, a carbon monoxide detector verified to work during the tour, and a fire extinguisher rated at a minimum 2A10BC .
