Under which condition may a nursery license application be refused according to FAC 6761?

A nursery license application may be refused if the applicant fails to meet cleanliness standards because maintaining a clean and sanitary environment is essential for the health and safety of the children who will be cared for at the facility. Cleanliness standards are set forth to ensure that nurseries provide a safe space that promotes the well-being of children, protects them from illnesses, and instills confidence in parents regarding the care their children will receive.

If a nursery does not adhere to these cleanliness standards, it signals a lack of commitment to providing a safe and healthy environment, which is a critical aspect of nursery operations. This requirement aligns with state regulations that prioritize children's welfare and public health, making it a valid basis for denying an application.

The other options presented do not constitute grounds for application refusal. Previous experience in nursery operations is generally viewed as an asset that can enhance a facility's ability to provide quality care. Completing the application inaccurately may raise questions, but it is often rectifiable through communication with the licensing body rather than leading to an outright refusal.
