§ 20-1A-38. Change of directors; records check requirements
Universal Citation: GA Code § 20-1A-38 (2017)
- (a) If the director of a licensed, commissioned, or permitted early care and education program ceases to be the director of that early care and education program, the license holder, commission holder, or permit holder shall thereupon designate a new director. After such change, the license holder, commission holder, or permit holder of that early care and education program shall notify the department of such change and of any additional information the department may require regarding the newly designated director of that early care and education program, including a fingerprint records check application. Such individuals shall also submit all necessary applications, fees, and acceptable fingerprints to the GCIC. If the department determines that such newly designated director has received a satisfactory fingerprint records check determination that includes a records check clearance date that is no more than 12 months old or had an unsatisfactory determination reversed pursuant to Code Section 20-1A-43 within the prior 12 months, such determination shall be deemed to be satisfactory for purposes of this article.
- (b) If the department determines under subsection (a) of this Code section that a licensed, commissioned, or permitted early care and education program knows or should reasonably know that the newly designated director has a criminal record or an unsatisfactory determination issued by the department that has not been reversed pursuant to Code Section 20-1A-43 and allows the director to reside at an early care and education program or be present at an early care and education program while children are present for care, then the license, commission, or permit for that facility shall be revoked.
