A Lakeway home daycare owner is suing the city after being denied a permit multiple times.
Bianca King runs a daycare business out of her home and the City of Lakeway continues to deny her a permit to continue running it. She is now filing a lawsuit.Bianca King always had a passion for teaching children. It gives her a sense of purpose.
When she was laid off from work at the beginning of the pandemic, she felt it was the perfect time to open up her home daycare business,"I received my permit from Texas Child Care Licensing to care for four other children including my own, and it’s been a dream come true," said King."The only complaints have come from three specific golfers who apparently need to golf in complete silence to have a good game," said Erica Smith Ewing, senior attorney at Institute of Justice.
King said she tried to get the permit with the city, but was denied each time. With the help of the institute for justice, she filed a lawsuit. King's lawyers said Lakeway has some of the most restrictive home business ordinances, and they are hoping to challenge the city.
