Title
Consider recommendations regarding a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Santa Barbara County Workforce Development Board and each of the Santa Barbara County America’s Job Center of CaliforniaSM One-Stop System Partners, as follows:
a) Approve and authorize the Santa Barbara Chief Elected Official (the Board of Supervisors of the County of Santa Barbara through its Chair), and the Santa Barbara County Workforce Development Board (through the Board Executive Director) to execute the MOU with each of the America’s Job Center of CaliforniaSM (AJCC) One-Stop System partners;
b) Approve and authorize the Santa Barbara Chief Elected Official (the Board of Supervisors of the county of Santa Barbara Chair), and the Santa Barbara County Workforce Development Board (through the Board Executive Director) to execute the MOU, on behalf of the WIOA Title I Adult, Dislocated Worker, and Youth Programs, with the Santa Barbara County Workforce Development Board;
c) Approve and authorize the Santa Barbara County Department of Social Services (DSS) Director, or designee, to execute the MOU, on behalf of the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families/CalWORKs Program, with the Santa Barbara County Workforce Development Board; and
d) Determine that the approval and execution of the MOU is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), finding that the execution of the MOU is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment, and where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment, the activities are not subject to CEQA.
