§ 47.05 Program Capacity and Limitation on Hours per Child.
RCNY § 47.05
(a)Maximum number of children on premises. Each permit shall specify the maximum number of children to be allowed on the premises of each specific type of program at any time that the program is in operation. The total number of children on the premises of the program shall be included for this purpose, regardless of whether such children are enrolled in the program. The Department shall determine the maximum number of children allowed based upon the number of children for which adequate facilities and teaching staff or shelter child supervision staff are provided, in accordance with: (1) the supervision and space requirements of this Code; and (2) the maximum number of persons permitted by the certificate of occupancy issued by the New York City Department of Buildings (DOB) or, if applicable, another government entity with the authority to issue a certificate of occupancy to the facility.
(b)Capacity not to be exceeded. A program shall not have children in attendance in excess of the number(s) prescribed in its permit.
(c)Limitation on hours per child. Family shelter-based drop-off child supervision programs must provide no more than 20 hours of services in any week to any child who has resided in the shelter for more than 90 days.
