BACKGROUND
In July 1998, the City of Santa Clarita entered into a subcontract with the Antelope Valley
Ar-r°OdED
Workforce Development Consortium to receive the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) grant for
Adult and Dislocated Worker Programs from the Los Angeles County Department of Community
and Senior Services. Since then, the City has been receiving annual WIA funding for the
operation of the Santa Clarita WorkSource Center.
The Santa Clarita WorkSource Center offers year-round no -cost services for job seekers,
including computer access, the ability to research and pursue job leads, and workshops to
improve job search skills and marketability. The funding also allows the Center to offer business
services, such as providing space and coordination for employee recruitments and interviews.
The Center has aided the business development in recent months of Lowe's Home Improvement,
Pacific Lock, T -Bo's Restaurant, New Moon Restaurant, and Technifex, among other new and
existing businesses in the Santa Clarita Valley.
While the annual formula grant allocation for the WIA program received from the Antelope
Valley Workforce Development Consortium this year is 2.74% less than last year's program, the
addition of the ARRA and GESF grants this year provides a total increase of 53% for the
program over Fiscal Year 2008-09 funding levels. These additional one-time grants allow the
City of Santa Clarita to offer additional case management services at the Center for job seekers.
As a result, for Fiscal Year 2009-10 the total funding for the WIA program is $239,217.
As part of the 21 -Point Business Plan for Progress adopted by the City Council on April 28,
2009, the Santa Clarita WorkSource Center was reassigned from the Community Services
Division to the Economic Development Division effective July 1, 2009. This was done in an
effort to strengthen the business focus of the WorkSource Center, including creating better
integration with College of the Canyons.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS
1. Decline acceptance of funds.
2 Other direction as determined by City Council
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost of this program is estimated at $239, 217, to be offset completely by grant revenue.
There is no City match required.
