Transportation plan
By following this policy, programs must submit a plan for administrative oversight of their transportation program to EEC no later than September 29, 2017.
The FY18 Income Eligible Contract contains language stating as a condition for the renewal of the contract that center-based child care programs and family child care systems that provide transportation either directly or through a subcontract must submit a plan for administrative oversight of their transportation program to EEC no later than September 29, 2017.
All transportation plans should clearly note the agency’s name, contact person, contact information, and date of submission. Transportation plans should be submitted electronically to Jonathan Dickinson.
