Zoning regulations cannot treat family or group child care homes located in residences differently from single or multifamily dwellings, and cannot require special zoning permits or exceptions for their operation

Municipalities must submit annual sworn statements to the Office of Policy and Management by December 1, 2021 certifying zoning compliance or providing a timeline for compliance

Rental agreements entered into or renewed after October 1, 2021 cannot prohibit or restrict tenants from operating licensed family child care homes

Licensed group child care homes in residences can only be subject to conditions imposed by the Commissioner of Early Childhood, not additional municipal conditions, if they comply with local codes applicable to single and multifamily dwellings

Child care home operators may name their landlord as an additional insured on renter's or homeowner's insurance policies
