SECTION 612:25-6-20. Closing a business enterprise

(a)   A business enterprise may be closed immediately by the SLA, the grantor, any government agency or the licensed manager when a life threatening situation, health or safety hazard exists. Notice of the closing should be made as soon as possible to the SLA and the grantor.

(b)   The business enterprise will also be closed immediately for failure to have proper insurance verification for liability and workers' compensation insurance.

(c)   The business enterprise may be closed for short periods of time with prior written approval from the SLA and the grantor.

(d)   The SLA's policy is to operate business enterprises that have the potential to produce net profit returns for licensed managers which will enable them to live self sufficiently and with dignity within their communities. Additional consideration is given to the amount of return on investment as related to expenditures for capital outlay, management services overhead, and other expenses of operation. Anytime a licensed manager vacates a business enterprise, the business consultant will re-evaluate the business enterprise if it generates revenue below the program net profit objective. A business enterprise that lacks the potential to meet the SLA's net profit objective will be closed or added to another location.
