Hello, I am wondering how much distance needs to be between a daycare center and a bar in Wisconsin. I cant seem to find any information. Thanks!

Riley, as far as I know, there is no reg. regarding this. Are you talking group center or family childcare?

I am family, but I am pretty sure that other than meeting commercial zoning ordinances for your city/township, there is no "rule" that says a bar can't be close to a daycare. We have several dc centers in town that are quite close to bars (one is almost directly across the main street).

Your local city/county zoning department is the only entity that can answer your question. Or perhaps your licensing agency. Every city/county/state has it's own zoning.codes. In my city, any educational facility has to be 500 feet from a bar.
