Text

A state agency or institution may provide for child care services to the children of
employees, students, or clients of the agency or institution in accordance with this section. Child
care services may be provided by the institution only after the head of the agency or institution
determines there is a need for the services and that the services will be provided at rates that
are not less than the average rates charged by private child care providers providing
comparable services in the community. Child care services may be provided in space available
within the facility housing the agency or institution. An agency or institution may operate a child
care center in available space or contract with a child care provider for child care services.
Within the limits of legislative appropriations, the agency or institution may provide utilities and
custodial and maintenance services for the child care center. Additional operating costs,
including the salaries for a director and staff and the cost of supplies, must be borne by the
center. A child care center provided for by an agency or institution may provide child care
services to the children of employees, students, or clients of the agency or institution and, to the
extent space is available, to any other children.
