RECOMMENDATION(S):

Appoint Thomas Hansen to the Workforce and Labor #1 seat on the Workforce Development Board with a term expiration of June 30, 2020, as recommended by the Family and Human Services Committee.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact.

BACKGROUND:

The Workforce Development Board implements federal requirements for programs to address the education, skills, and employment needs for a skilled workforce, and that lead to an increase in the skills and earnings of Contra Costa County residents.

Under the new standards in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act, the new Workforce Development Board structure is comprised of 23 required seats consisting of: 13 business representatives, five workforce representatives, and five education and training representatives.

There are currently four vacancies and the Workforce Development Board has made the recommendation to appoint Thomas Hansen. At their June 26, 2017 meeting, the Family and Human Services reviewed and approved the appointment recommendation.

The seat will remain vacant.
