828 - Selection and administration of centers.

§  828. Selection and administration of centers. 1. In selecting sites
  for the centers established under this article, the  commissioner  shall
  consider:
    (a)  the  location of any existing facilities for displaced homemakers
  and of any existing services which might be incorporated into a center.
    (b) the needs of both urban and rural communities  of  the  state  for
  such centers.
    2.  As soon as possible after the selection of a particular site for a
  center, and in any case not later than two  years  after  the  effective
  date  of  this  article,  the  commissioner  shall  select  a  public or
  nonprofit private organization to administer each center. The  selection
  of  such  an  organization  shall  be made after consultation with local
  government agencies, and shall take into  consideration  the  experience
  and capability of such organizations in administering the services to be
  provided by the center.
    3. As soon as possible and in any case not later than six months after
  the  effective  date  of  this  article,  the  commissioner  shall issue
  regulations prescribing the standards which shall be met by each  center
  in  accordance  with  the policies set forth in this article. Continuing
  grants for the maintenance of each center shall be contingent  upon  the
  determination  by the commissioner, based upon evaluations under section
  eight hundred twenty-nine  of  this  article,  that  the  center  is  in
  compliance with the regulations prescribed by the commissioner.
