FAMILY, GROUP CHILD CARE HOMES S.B. 242 & 243: FLOOR ANALYSIS






Senate Bills 242 and 243 (as reported without amendment)
Sponsor: Senator Gilda Z. Jacobs
Committee: Families and Human Services

CONTENT
Senate Bill 242 would amend the Michigan Zoning Enabling Act to refer to a "family child care home" and a "group child care home", rather than a family day care home and a group day care home.


Senate Bill 243 would amend the Code of Criminal Procedure to replace references in the sentencing guidelines to family day care homes and group day care homes with "family child care homes" and "group child care homes".


The two bills are tie-barred to Senate Bill 241, which would make the same change in terminology (and other revisions) in the child care licensing Act.
