1.
If the Division believes that a person, state or local government unit or agency thereof is operating a child care facility without a license or with a suspended license, the Division may issue an order to cease and desist the operation of the facility. The order must be served upon the person, state or local government unit or agency thereof by personal delivery or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. The order is effective upon service.2.
If the person, state or local government unit or agency thereof does not cease operating the child care facility without a license or apply for licensure within 30 days after the date of service of the order issued pursuant to subsection 1 or does not cease operating the child care facility with a suspended license, as applicable, the Division may bring an action in the name of the State to enjoin the person, state or local government unit or agency thereof from operating or maintaining the child care facility without a license or with a suspended license.3.
It is sufficient in such an action to allege that the defendant did, on a certain date and in a certain place, operate and maintain the facility without a license.4.
Upon a showing by the Division that a person, state or local government unit or agency thereof is operating a child care facility without a license or with a suspended license, a court may:(a)
Enjoin the person, state or local government unit or agency thereof from operating the facility.(b)
Impose a civil penalty on the person, state or local government unit or agency thereof, to be recovered by the Division, of not more than $10,000 for the first offense or not less than $10,000 or more than $25,000 for a second or subsequent offense.5.
Any money collected as an administrative penalty pursuant to subsection 4 must be accounted for separately and used to administer and carry out the provisions of this chapter, to protect the health, safety, well-being and property of the children to which child care facilities provide care in accordance with applicable standards or for any other purpose authorized by the Legislature.
