Exemption granted for in-home childcare

WORLAND – A special exemption for in-home childcare was approved at the Worland Board of Adjustment and Planning Commission meeting Thursday afternoon.

Krystal Re said, “I went through all the hoops,” and while the state gave her a maximum occupancy of 10, she will only take up to six because of insurance purposes.

Re said she decided to open a daycare so she can stay home with her newborn son and plans to have the daycare open, “until my little guy goes to preschool.”

The motion for the special exemption was passed unanimously.

Other business included the board also welcomed Jenn Rasmussen, the newly appointed BAPC member. Rasmussen works with the Chamber of Commerce.
