for local Workforce Development Boards (WDB) changed effective January 1, 2007.
Implementation guidelines were just recently released by the State of California. In order to fulfill
the requirements of Senate Bill (SB) 293 in Contra Costa County, the WDB size must increase to
accommodate a requirement that 15%of the members represent labor, while retaining a
business majority on the WDB, thus requiring the WDB to increase the seats to accommodate 45
board members. The seats designated for business must increase from 20 to a total of 23 and
the seats designated for labor must increase from two to a total of seven. All other designated
seats remain the same in number. The Workforce Development Board approved the changes in
the bylaws on September 24, 2007 to accommodate the required increase in seat numbers.
Since the members are appointed to.the Workforce Development Board by the Contra Costa
County Board of Supervisors, the changes must be adopted bythe Board and reflected in the
Maddy Book.
