SUBJECT: AUTHORIZE COUNTY COUNSEL/LEGAL ASSISTANCE TO CONTRA COSTA COUNTY
PRIVATE INDUSTRY COUNCIL IN FILING FOR A NON PROFIT 11501 C"
CORPORATION
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize County Counsel to provide legal services to the PIC Executive Director for
the filing of a 501 c tax exempt corporation application with costs charged to the Job
Training Partnership Act Program; authorize use of private legal resources if
necessary, authorize payment of filing fees, limit total authorization to $7;500.
II. FINANCIAL IWACT:
100% federal grant funds.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
In researching alternate sources of supplemental revenue, the PIC has concluded that
it needs a 501 c tax exempt corporation to meet donor requirements. The PIC has found
its ability to raise funds is restricted because it does not have a 501 c status; although
some donations have been received without a 501 c number, most agencies and
businesses will not donate funds unless there is a Al c tax exempt number. Section
103 of the Job Training Partnership Act authorizes the Contra Costa County Private
Industry Council to incorporate.
Funds received by the 501 c would be administered the same way past donations have
been administered, the funds would be deposited with the Auditor-Controller as
restricted donations and subject to standard County fiscal management. This is
consistent with the current Board PIC memorandum of agreement which makes the PIC
the program entity and the Board of Supervisors the grant recipient and fiscal agent.
The Board of Directors of the 501 c entity would be the Board of Supervisors appointed
members of the Private Industry Council. All PIC bylaws are subject to review by
County Counsel.

501c BOARD ORDER
Attached is a substitute Board Order for the 9/27 Agenda Review meeting for the 10/3/95
Board meeting.
After a discussion with Vic Westman, the Board Order has been redrafted to address his
concerns.
Technically, we are not asking the Board to approve the establishment of a 501c, the
federal legislation authorizes such action. Donations to the 501c will be deposited in the
County Treasury as restricted donations - the same procedure we have used for the last
12 years for donations from entities that did not require 501c status to donate. The 501c
governing board will be the Board appointed PIC members.
