Set Public Hearing For <br /> CONTINUED TO <br /> FILE NUMBER <br /> CITY MANAGER <br /> <br /> RECOMMENDED ACTION <br /> <br /> Approve an appropriation adjustment recognizing additional revenues from the California <br /> Workforce Investment Board in the amount of $5,000 for Workforce Investment Act activities. <br /> <br /> DISCUSSION <br /> <br /> The California Workforce Investment Board (CWIB) is responsible for assisting the Governor in all <br /> the functions outlined in the Workforce Investment Act. In 2008, the CWIB asked One-Stop <br /> Employment Centers in California to pilot a new service model designed to employ job seekers <br /> and increase their chances of retaining those jobs. The WORK Center was one of 12 One-Stop <br /> employment centers across the State of California to adopt the new model. <br /> <br /> On February 7, 2011, Cal State Northridge (CSUN) staff on behalf of the CWIB conducted an <br /> onsite study of Santa Ana WORK Center services. Specifically, the CWIB measured the impact of <br /> the WORK Center service model in order to compare it to others statewide. City staff assisted in <br /> the gathering of data on the service model impact including volume and type of services delivered, <br /> customer satisfaction, activity based cost accounting and federal outcomes. The CWIB will <br /> reimburse the WORK Center for the staff time needed to prepare and collect the needed data. <br /> <br /> FISCAL IMPACT <br /> Upon approval of the appropriation adjustment, funds will be available in the One Stop Program <br /> account (no. 12318751). <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 20B-1 <br />
