Subject:Workforce Investment Act Local Plan Modification, Program Year 2011-12
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
the Modification is to be sent to the State. Receipt of the Modification by the State then
ensures the award of formula Allocation funding from the state to the local area.
This year the information requested by the State in the Modification is to include
responses to questions specific to delivery of services and responsiveness of the local
WDB, its delivery system to economic and demographic trends, and questions regarding
the use of approved waivers, if any. In addition, forms that include projected participants
to be served are completed and reflect the same information requested by the State in
each previous year.
On June 8, 2011, the WDB Executive Committee authorized distribution of the Local
Modification for public review and authorized staff, if no public comment or input was
made, to forward the Modification to the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors for
approval and signature. No public comment was received.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The State informed local Workforce Investment Act (WIA) areas that WIA formula
allocation funding would be withheld without receipt of a finalized Workforce
Investment Act Local Plan Modification for Program Year 2011-2012.
