The Commission may vote to adopt proposed amendments to rules regarding lead and asbestos inspections in 10A NCAC 09 .0102, .0601, .1707, .1725, .2204, .2206, and .2209.  The Commission may also vote to adopt proposed rules in Section .2600—Flex Plex Model Facilities (Multi-Unit Child Care Centers) for rules 10A NCAC 09 .2611, .2612, .2613, .2614, .2615, and .2616 which allow for the licensing of an alternative child care facility model.

The public hearing for the above-named rules was held on July 24, 2023 and the public comment period ended August 14, 2023.
