RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Employment and Human Services Director, or designee, on behalf of the Workforce Development Board, to execute a contract amendment with the City of Richmond to increase the amount payable to County by $50,000 to a new payment limit of $150,000, for pre-apprenticeship programs in the construction and energy-efficient fields of employment, and extend the contract term from June 30, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$150,000 (includes amendment amount of $50,000), !00% State Proposition 39. (No County match)

BACKGROUND:

The Employment and Human Services Department (EHSD), Workforce Development Board (WDB), will provide pre-apprenticeship curriculum and training components developed in partnership with members of the building trades and provide industry recognized certificates. Job placement assistance and pathways to further education will be provided by the WDB. This amendment will provide additional funding and extension of time for training programs to additional individuals.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Without additional funding, current pre-apprenticeship programs would not be expanded.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
