This bill amends chapter 59-1698 of the Laws of Florida, specifically revising the definitions of "family day care home" and "large family child care home" in Palm Beach County. The amendments clarify the maximum number of children that can receive care in these facilities, ensuring compliance with Florida Statutes and administrative rules set by the Florida Department of Children and Families. The bill specifies that a family day care home can care for a number of children that does not exceed the limits established by state law, while a large family child care home must also adhere to these regulations.

Additionally, the bill removes previous specific numerical limits on the number of children that could be cared for in large family child care homes, replacing them with a general requirement to comply with state regulations. This change aims to provide more flexibility while maintaining safety and regulatory standards for child care facilities in the county. The act is set to take effect upon becoming law.
