RECOMMENDATION(S):

RE-TITLE the Workforce Development Board of Contra Costa County, Community Based Organization (CBO), Seat Number 3 to Veterans Services Organization (VSO) Seat.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Not Applicable

BACKGROUND:

The Workforce Investment Act (WIA) requires local Workforce Investment Boards to have at least one member to represent veterans. The re-titled position will broaden the scope of the Workforce Development Board of Contra Costa County to ensure representation of veterans and thereby fulfilling the requirements of the WIA. The VSO seat can be filled by a governmental or non-governmental representative.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without a Veterans Services Organization Seat, the Workforce Development Board of Contra Costa County will not be in compliance with the Workforce Investment Act.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not Applicable
