The following measurements were obtained during this inspection.
Room 102 is 585.83 square feet
Room 103 is 603.37 square feet
Room 104 is 382.53 square feet
Room 105 is: 583.82 square feet
Total indoor measurement for the rooms are 2155.55 square feet divided by 35 square feet = 62

Toilets: 6 X 15= 90 children
Sinks: 6 X 15 = 90 children.

Outdoor Activity Space:
The facility has 2 designated outdoor playgrounds which are the preschool yard and preK yard. The preschool outdoor space is 2527.19 square feet divided by 75= 34. The PreK outdoor space is 1825.59 square feet divided by 75=24 total capacity is 58.

Based on measurements obtained both indoors and outdoors, the facility capacity will be reduced to 62. The licensee has requested to reduce capacity by removing 2 classrooms. The licensee requested a decrease in capacity from 83 to 70. However, based on the measurements obtained the facility capacity allows for 62 children.

Due to the measurements obtained for the outdoor play area, the licensee will need to request a waiver in order to obtain the capacity of 62. LPAs consulted with the director to submit a waiver for the playground to accommodate the capacity requested. A waiver was submitted to share the connecting restroom with the infant/toddler in room 106 and preschool in room 105. The request for a capacity decrease will be submitted for final review. The facility will be notified if any additional information is required.

An exit interview was conducted with the director. The Notice of Site Visit was given and discussed it must be posted as required by H & S Code Sec. 1596.817. Notice of Site Visit must be posted for 30 consecutive days. Failure to post will result in civil penalties of $100.00
