102417(g)(5) · (g)The home shall be free from defects or conditions which might endanger a child. Safety precautions shall include but not be limited to:(5) All licensees shall ensure the inaccessibility of pools above-ground and similar bodies of water through a pool cover or by surrounding the pool with a fence.... Licensee agreed to go inactive for 30 days starting 07/24/2024. Licensee will comply with regulations by putting up fence and will ensure the pool fence is modified to comply with regulations, which state a pool fence must be at least 5 feet in height.

Based on observation, the licensee did not comply with the section cited above. LPAs observed the pool did not have a fence around the pool and had windows that opened to the pool. This poses an immediate health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care and the pool gate is self-latching, self-closing and opens away from the swimming pool. Licensee states she will notify LPA once the repairs are made and before re-opening and having children in care. A $500.00 Civil Penalty will be assessed as of today.
