distribution to local Workforce Investment Boards to fund employment and employment-related services for
adults, dislocated workers, and youth. The Board of Supervisors authorized the acceptance of the Program Year
(PY) 2004/2005 WIA subgrant allocation of$1, 481,721 in youth formula funds (July 13, 2004, Item C.78). A
series of subgrant modifications resulted in a total WIA funding of$5,323,948 (July 28, 2005, Item C. 57). This
action recognizes the latest unilateral modification from the State de-obligating $34,050.89 from one of three
