a Job (011) program in Orange County however a Job Corp representative may be coming to Orange County in the next year (see V.c.). The Board is cunently negotiating with the one-stop partners, through the one-stop center to develop cost sharing arrangements as the one-stop has first hand lmow ledge of each partners' contributions. The L WIA was anticipating additional direction and assistance from the State as developing these cost sharing arrangements is complicated and different for each partner. The Department of Labor had offered to assist Santa Ana in the development of its cost sharing agreements and copies of the signed MODs were submitted to their consultant in March 2003. The consultant contacted Santa Ana in October 2003 and set up a meeting with all our partners. A workshop was conducted and forms distributed for the partners to figure out their contributions to the one-stop system. However his contract ran out before the agreements were completed due to the lengthly contract negotiations with EDD. The LWlA had lease agreements with the State Employment Development Dept.and Orange County Social S'ervices Agency (SSA), which are on file with EDDIWID. The lease agreement amendment for SSA went to City Council for approval in August 2004 and is still finding it way though the Orange County contract process and it will be forwarded once it has been executed. This should occur within the next 90 days. Negotiations with the State EDD Real Estate Division to renew their current lease at the one-stop were completed this last winter and we are awaiting a contract from them as well. Meanwhile they are continuing to use a month-to-month option on their old lease until the new one is completed. Once the new one is executed,.a copy will be forwarded to the EDDIWID. However, neither partner will be able to submit final numbers for the cost sharing agreement until their lease agreements are finalized. Once all the figures are secured, a common method will be selected that is fair and equitable to all partners and cost sharing agreements will be developed. This is expected to be accomplished within the next fiscal year. 3. What process will the local board use to document negotiations with One-Stop partners who fail to participate or sign an MaU? How will you inform the state board when negotiations have failed? [Interim Final Rule ~ 662.31 O(b) J The Board will document all meetings that occuned between the two entities, those present at the meetings, final draft copies of MODs upon which the agreement failed and a statement by both parties about why the negotiations failed. When it is clear that no further progress will be made, a letter will be sent to the State Workforce Investment Board (SWIB), stating the reasons as cited by both parties about why the negotiation failed.
