I DATE: NOVEMBER 14, 2006 I PAGE: 2 of 2 j I I I I CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT I This Program supports the following Board of Supervisors' community outcomes: "Children Ready for and Succeeding in School;" "Families that are Safe, Stable, and Nurturing,;" and "Communities that are Safe and Provide a High Quality of Life for Children' and Families." Expected program outcomes include an increase in positive social and emotional development. j I REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS AND BACKGROUND: I The Kids At Work(KAW)day care center has operated successfully at the Public Works Department for the past 12 years providing day care services for the chitdren of county employees. In the early planning stages of the planning for the department's new addition we looked at relocating the day care operation to minimize impacts of construction on the center.It was determined that it was too expensive and logistically difficult to find an affordable way to move the center. The decision was made to leave the center in place during construction. In recent months the Department has begunjto modify the site conditions around the day care in anticipation of the construction of the new addition. This work and the pending construction have caused an impact on the KAW's ability to fill all of the available spots in the center. In order for the center to stay viable during this construction time it is necessary for the Department to compensate them for the impacts.The compensation will actually be a cost savings over the cost to move of the centericonsidered earlier.
