DISCUSSION In 1998 arrangements were made wi th Freeway Chevron, located at 400 E. Seventeenth Street, Santa Ana, to establish a gasoline voucher program for Santa Ana W/O/R/K Center program participants. This program allows eligible participants to obtain a $12 voucher to purchase gasoline at market rates from Freeway Chevron. These vouchers are part of the supportive services offered to participants to allow them to find and retain employment. The arrangement was made with Freeway Chevron because of the close proximity to the W/O/R/K Center and its willingness to participate in the program. With the current economic environment and the rapid increase in the cost of gasoline, there has been a large increase in gas voucher distribution. As a result, the $10,000 vendor payment maximum was reached in September. Staff recommends that the contract with Freeway Chevron be amended in order to continue these necessary supportive services to eligible participants. 250-1 Contract Amendment with Freeway Chevron October 4, 2004 Page 2 F:ISCAL :IMPACT Funds for this contract are available in the One Stop Adult account (account no. 123-153-6938), One Stop Dislocated Worker account (account no. 123-154-6938), the One Stop Youth account (account no. 123-155-6938), the FEZ Service Navigator account (account no. 129-035-6938), the Social Services Agency Work Experience account (account no. 124-322-6938), and the OC NEG Technology account (account no. 124-311-6938).
