It was reported, on or about 08/23/2024, that the metal bike merry-go-around is rusted and broken. LPA conducted observations of the facility playgrounds and observed one metal bike merry-go-around which was broken. The wheel of the bike merry-go-around was missing a bolt and did not have a properly attached wheel. LPA observed that the bike merry-go-around was accessible to day-care children as nothing prevented access to the play equipment. Additionally, LPA conducted interviews with pertinent parties which stated that children had been outside at the playground with the broken merry-go-around as recently as the day before LPA initiated the complaint investigation. There have been no reported injuries that have occurred as a result of the bike merry-go-around. LPA informed the facility that all furniture and equipment must remain in good repair at all times.

Based on LPA observations and interviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation(s) is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 12 & Chapter 1), are being cited on the attached LIC9099D.

See LIC809-D for cited deficiencies.

A notice of site visit was given and must remain posted for 30 days.

Failure to comply with posting requirements shall result in an immediate civil penalty of $100.

Exit interview conducted and report was reviewed with the Director Rosa Perez.
