PPECC Change of Ownership

A center license is not assignable or transferable. If a change of ownership occurs, the license holder’s license becomes invalid on the date DADS acknowledges the change of ownership. The prospective new license holder must obtain a license. An application for a center license when there is a change of ownership is an application for an initial license.
