8VAC20-821-120: Refusal of renewal

A. The superintendent may refuse a renewal application for (i) failure to meet the qualifications for renewal or violation of licensing standards or (ii) failure to comply with the terms of a special order or final order issued by the superintendent.

B. When renewal of a license for a child day program or family day system has been refused by the superintendent, the applicant shall not, for a period of six months, apply again for the license, unless the superintendent in the superintendent's sole discretion believes that there has been a change in the conditions on account of which the license was refused as to justify considering a new application. When an appeal is taken by the applicant pursuant to subsection A of § 22.1-289.024 of the Code of Virginia, the six-month period shall be extended until a final decision has been rendered on appeal.
