Hundertmark, Johnsrud, Kreibich, Musser
and Seratti. Referred to
Committee on Small Business and Consumer Affairs.
AB337,1,2 1An Act to amend 66.1017 (1) (a) and 66.1017 (2) of the statutes; relating to: the
2regulation of family day care homes.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a county, city, village, or town may not prevent a family day
care home (a dwelling licensed as a day care center by the department of health and
family services that provides care for no more than eight children) from being located
in a zoned district in which single-family residence is a permitted use. This bill
eliminates the requirement that a family day care home be located in a dwelling. The
bill also prohibits a county, city, village, or town from requiring that a family day care
program be located in the principal residence of the operator of the program.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
AB337, s. 1 3Section 1. 66.1017 (1) (a) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB337,1,64 66.1017 (1) (a) "Family day care home" means a dwelling licensed as a day care
5center licensed by the department of health and family services under s. 48.65 where
6care is provided for not more than 8 children.

2located in a zoned district in which a single-family residence is a permitted use. No
3municipality may establish standards or requirements for family day care homes
4different from the licensing standards established under s. 48.65. This subsection
5does not prevent a municipality from applying to a family day care home the zoning
6regulations applicable to other dwellings in the zoning district in which it is located,
7except that a municipality may not require that a family day care home be located
8in the principal residence of the operator of the home
