The bill amends the existing construction code regulations to include specific provisions regarding the installation and use of temporary door locking devices or systems in child care centers. It outlines detailed requirements for these devices, such as being portable, not permanently affixed, and allowing for normal ingress and egress. The bill mandates that operators of child care centers submit plans and installation instructions to the enforcing agency for approval before installation, and they must also provide training to staff on the use of these devices. Additionally, existing devices must be inspected and approved by the enforcing agency to ensure compliance with the new standards.

Furthermore, the bill clarifies that operators are not required to submit sealed construction documents from licensed professionals for the installation of new or existing temporary door locking devices. It allows for the installation of these devices in any child care center, regardless of the building's size or the cost of construction. The bill also specifies that any conflicting provisions in existing laws are superseded by this act, ensuring that the new regulations take precedence.
