Glasgow City Zoning Code

DAYCARE

§ 158.350 PURPOSE.

   A DAYCARE is defined as any facility that offers part-time care day or night, but less than 24 hours per day to either children or adults not related to the operator or the facility by blood, marriage, or adoption and are not the children, grandchildren, children in legal custody, nieces or nephews of the operator. The Glasgow Zoning Ordinance will not supersede or contradict KRS 199.00 in any way and in any case that care for any person is initiated, under the definitions set forth in KRS 199.00, all state requirements and licensing are to be followed and attained. No permit or ordinance granting permission to anyone providing such care by any entity in the City of Glasgow relinquishes the care provider from meeting the requirements set forth in KRS 199.00.
