    On page 11, line 30, after "imposed" insert "and licensing fees"

    On page 11, line 36, after "homes" insert ", and licensing and oversight of adult family homes"

    On page 21, beginning on line 7, after "fee." strike all material  through "clients." on line 15 and insert "The license fee shall be set at two hundred fifty dollars per year for each home. A two thousand dollar processing fee shall also be charged each home when it is initially licensed."

EFFECT:   Directs the proceeds from adult family home license fees into the adult family home account. Expands the uses of the

nonappropriated account to include supporting the licensing and oversight of adult family homes. Sets the annual adult family home license fee at $250 per year per home and the initial processing fee at $2,000. This maintains the current law where the fees are also set in statute (but at different amounts). This differs from the underlying bill which directs that the adult family home license fee would be set in the biennial appropriations act.
