OPINION

RACANELLI, P.J.

This appeal challenges the constitutionality of Health and Safety Code section 1596.871, an integral provision of the California Child Day Care Facilities Act, insofar as it automatically denies a license to operate a day care facility to an applicant residing with an adult convicted of a violent felony. For the reasons we explain, we find no constitutional infirmity as claimed.
