RECOMMENDED ACTION
Appoint Robert Tucker, Labor Relations Representative of the California School Employees
Association, as a labor representative on the Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board.
WORKFORCE INVESMENT BOARD RECOMMENDATION
At its regular meeting of March 12, 2010, by a vote of 20:0 (Claudio, Conway, De Leon, Lewis,
Maldonado, Metzler, Pina, Ruiz, Saldivar, Solkamans absent), the Workforce Investment Board
recommended that the City Council appoint Robert Tucker, Labor Relations Representative of the
California School Employees Association, as a labor representative on the Santa Ana Workforce
Investment Board.
DISCUSSION
On March 6, 2000, the Santa Ana City Council adopted a resolution establishing the Santa Ana
Workforce Investment Board and appointed 35 members. In accordance with the federal
legislation, a majority of the Board members and the Board Chair must come from the private
sector. The remaining Board members represent education, non-profit organizations, one-stop
mandated partners and local labor organizations.
There is currently one mandated labor representative seat vacant on the Board. The Orange
County Labor Federation is the only labor organization authorized to nominate labor
representatives locally and they have submitted a nomination letter highlighting Mr. Tucker's
qualifications (Exhibit 1).
