Honorable Board of Supervisors

FROM:

Maureen Borland, Director, Human Services Agency

 

Glen H. Brooks, Jr., Director, Central Region

SUBJECT:

Fourth Amendment to the Agreement with Jefferson Union High School District

 

Recommendation

Adopt a Resolution authorizing the execution of a Fourth Amendment to the Agreement with the Jefferson Union High School District (JUHSD) increasing the amount by $91,000 for a total Agreement obligation of $1,063,231 and extending the term from June 30, 2004 to December 31, 2004.

 

Background

On October 17, 2000, the Board of Supervisors authorized the execution of an Agreement with Jefferson Union High School to provide Year-Round Employment and Training Related Services to 92 Out-of-School eligible youth in North County. The original Agreement included a maximum amount of $309,906 for the period of October 1, 2000 through September 30, 2002. This Agreement has been amended on three previous occasions to add "Pathways for Success for In-School Youth", to increase the amount and service level for “Tools for Success for the Out-of-School Youth”, and extend the term.

 

Discussion

This Fourth Amendment provides funds to serve additional youth in both the Pathways for Success program and the Tools for Success program through the end of FY 2003-04. This Amendment extends the term of the Agreement to allow for a RFP process to be completed. A subsequent Amendment will be brought to the Board of Supervisors at a later date, adding funding to the Agreement to cover the period between July 1, 2004 and the completion of the RFP process. This Amendment has been reviewed by County Counsel and approved as to form. Risk Management has reviewed and approved Contractor’s insurance.

 

Vision Alignment

The Agreement with the Jefferson Union High School District keeps the commitment to: Sow the seeds of our future prosperity and goal number 19: The skill level of new workers rises with improved K-12 education and training options. This Agreement contributes to this commitment and goal by providing educational, vocational and supportive services to youth.

 

Fiscal Impact

The term of the Agreement is changed to October 31, 2000 through December 31, 2004. This Amendment increases the Agreement by $91,000, of which $33,000 is for the Pathways for Success program and $58,000 is for the Tools for Success program. This changes the total Agreement amount from $972,231 to $1,063,231. This total obligation is funded with WIA funds and is included in the FY 2003-04 Adopted Budget. Funds for the Youth program services for FY 2004-05 are appropriated in the FY 2004-05 Recommended Level Budget. There is no Net County Cost.
