RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE 2022 CHILD CARE
MASTER PLAN FOR SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO: A
PLAN FOR 2020-2030.
WHEREAS, the City Council recognized the need to plan for the near, mid-term, and
long-term child care needs of residents and employers in South San Francisco, and authorized funding to
develop a Child Care Master Plan (COMP) in fiscal year 2021-22; and
WHEREAS, the purpose of the master plan is to improve and expand the reach, quality, and
impact of early childhood education programs, child care, and youth services for South San Francisco
residents, and will be used as a resource for guiding future operations, priorities and the development
and location of child care programs through 2030; and
WHEREAS, Kathleen White, a child care consultant was selected to assist staff in crafting a
comprehensive Child Care Master Plan; and
WHEREAS, project methodology involved a mixed method of quantitative data analysis and
qualitative findings, which included researching local and regional publications, conducting two
community surveys, taking inventory and mapping child care programs within the city, reviewing
population projections, interviewing key child care community leaders, and current economic factors;
and
WHEREAS, alignment with the City's updated General Plan, SHAPE SSF, was coordinated
and cross-referenced in both Plans; and
WHEREAS, the draft Child Care Master Plan was agendized for consideration and approved
by the Parks and Recreation Commission on April 19, 2022, with public and Commission comments
incorporated into the final draft; and
WHEREAS, the Master Plan has been completed at a time of great promise and possibility in
which significant federal, state, county, and local funds will continue to be available through 2025 and
beyond, as California ramps up efforts to implement Transitional Kindergarten (Universal TK) for all
four -year-olds and income eligible three -year-olds; these initiatives also provide for a significant
expansion of extended learning (after school) program funding and expanded workforce development
efforts, specifically prioritizing the education sector; and
WHEREAS, the plan includes over one hundred recommendations, the implementation of
which, if done in collaboration and alignment, can maximize funding opportunities and can result in
improved outcomes for South San Francisco's children and families.
