I learn this from a local news paper. The following is the summary of the article:
Title: Tenant does not need landlord’s approval to run in-home daycare.
Question: I have a tenant running daycare on my property. Do I have to allow this?
Answer: California law allows the operation of family daycare homes at residential rental –property. Both small family day care homes (up to eight children) and large family day care homes (up to 12 children) can be operated by a tenant without the approval of the property owner. A tenant can care for two additional children in a large family day care home, but they must first obtain the written consent of the property owner.
Tenant must notify the property owner in writing. Landlord can require the tenant to be licensed by the proper authorities. Landlord can ask more deposit, but not more than 2 months.
LZ: I don’t know if it is legal to refuse tenant who plan to run day care.
