Approve the Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board Annual Plan Modification
for Fiscal Year 2008-09 and authorize its submittal to the State of
California Workforce Investment Board.
WORKFORCE INVESMENT BOARD ACTION
At its Regular Meeting of November 21, 2008, by a vote of 20:0 (Claudio,
Figueroa, Gebre, Jimenez-Hami, Korthuis, Lacroix, Martinez, Metzler, and
Wadhera absent), the Workforce Investment Board recommended that the City
Council approve the Santa Ana Workforce Investment Board Annual Plan
Modification for Fiscal Year 2008-09 and authorize its submittal to the
State of California Workforce Investment Board.
DISCUSSION
The State Workforce Investment Board (WIB) requires each Local Workforce
Investment Area (LWIA) to submit a modification of its local plan for
their review and approval in order to receive funding for that fiscal
year (Exhibit 1). This modification process is used to ensure plans meet
any new State Board requirements, to document any substantial changes in
the LWIA and to submit fund utilization and participant services plans
for the new fiscal year. Workforce Investment Act (WIA) regulations
require a thirty-day public comment period for all plan modifications to
allow for input on the expected usage of these federal funds and prior to
the plan modification being approved.
The proposed plan modification document was mailed to all WIB members and
other interested parties on October 22, 2008, and a notice was published
in the O.C. Register announcing its availability to the public for a
thirty day comment period on October 21, 2008. The Public Hearing was
19D-1
WIA Plan Modification for FY 2008-09
December 1, 2008
Page 2
held at the November 21, 2008 WIB meeting. No comments were received.
The final document is due to the State Workforce Investment Board by
December 31, 2008. With the exception of incorporating new funds only
minor changes were required to the plan regarding local employment
statistics and efforts towards implementation of SB293, which requires an
increase of labor representative on the Workforce Investment Board.
This plan modification is required for the city to be eligible to receive
WIA funds for fiscal year 2008-09. Once the plan modification is
submitted by the City of Santa Ana and approved by the State Board and
the Governor, Santa Ana will be eligible to receive $1, 292, 620 in adult
funds, $717,608 in dislocated worker funds, $1,338,849 in Youth funds and
$228,120 in Rapid Response funds.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this action.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Enclose a brief summary, not more than two pages, of the five-year strategic local plan
that gives a general overview of the proposed local workforce investment system.
Include a description of how the system looks today, and how it will change over the
five-year plan period. Include a discussion of the local board's economic and
workforce investment goals and how the local system will support these goals.
PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
WIA gives states and local areas a unique opportunity to develop employment and
training systems tailored specifically to state and local area needs. The local plan is only
as effective as the partnership that implements it. The plan should represent a
collaborative process among the Chief Elected Official and the local system partners.
This collaboration will create a shared understanding of the local area's workforce
investment needs, a shared vision of how the local workforce investment system can be
designed to meet those needs, and agreement on the key strategies to achieve this
vision. This collaborative planning at all stages should drive local system development,
create strategies for improvement, and provide the opportunity for stakeholder and
public participation, review and comment.
In this section, describe the plan development process, including comments received
during the public comment period that were incorporated within the plan. [WIA Section
118(x) and (c}(1 }]
(Please note: we recognize that local areas are required to develop various related local
plans and we encourage you, whenever feasible and appropriate, to use planning
information that has already been developed. However, the data you use must be
accurate and current.)
A. What was the role of the Chief Elected Official in developing the plan? [WIA
Section 118(x)]
B. What local workforce investment board, transition board or existing body had
oversight for the development of this local plan? If there was no such body, how

investment area. Are these the same or different than those present in the previous
service delivery area(s)? If different, how can the needs be better met by the new,
local workforce investment system? To complete this section, answer the following
questions. _
A. What are the workforce investment needs of businesses, job-seekers, and workers
in the local area? [WIA Section 118(b){1)(A)]
FW IAB99-2A 6 of 18 Rev. 9/08
19D-9
B. How will the needs of employers be determined in your area? [State Planning
Guidance IV.B.6]
C. What are the current and projected employment opportunities in the local area?
[WIA Section 118(b)(1)(B)]
The latest Orange County data (10/17/08 press release) provided by fhe Employmenf
Development Department, Labor Market Information Division indicates that the
unemployment rate for Santa Ana has grown fo 9.2 from 6.8 a year ago. In Orange
County the unemployment rate has risen from 4.2 in August 2007 to 5.7 in September
2008. The one-stops are seeing larger numbers of clients who face fhe difficult
challenge of competing with many highly skilled recently laid off workers for the small
number of jobs available to them. It is anticipated that the competition for the traditional
holiday season positions will be intense in 2008. Nonfarm employment increased by
only 2,300 jobs during the past year. Government jobs were up but that was due to
teachers returning to fhe classroom after the summer recess. Healthcare and social
assistance jobs only grew by 400 jobs while leisure and hospitality had the largest
decrease (2400 jobs) and construction was down 800 jobs.
D. What job skills are necessary to obtain such employment opportunities? [WIA
Section 11$(b)(1)(C)]
IV. LEADERSHIP
As stated in the Federal Register of April 15, 1999, "The Department [of Labor] believes
that changing from the existing JTPA Private Industry Councils to local workforce
investment boards is essential to the reforms of WIA [Interim Final Rule §661.305] . The
Department [of Labor] strongly encourages all eligible areas to create new, fully
functional local boards as early as possible, and is committed to providing assistance to
facilitate such changes."
In this section describe how authority will be exercised by the local workforce
investment board. [WIA Section 117(b)(3) and (d)(1)]
A. If an interim board was responsible for development of this plan, how will the plan
and authority to oversee its implementation under WIA Section 117(d)(4) be
transferred to the new local workforce investment board?
B. What circumstances constitute a conflict of interest for a local board member,
including voting on any matter regarding provision of service by that member or
the entity that s/he represents, and any matter that would provide a financial
benefit to that member? [V1/1A Section 117(8)(1)(2)]
FWIAB99-2A 7 of 18 Rev. 9/08
190-10
C. How will the local board provide a leadership role in developing policy,
implementing policy, and oversight for the local workforce investment system?
[WIA Section 117(d)(4)] Include in this discussion a description of your local
board composition and how it meets the membership criteria set forth in the
California Unemployment Insurance Code (CUIC) Section 14202.
The Santa Ana W1B anticipates receiving nominations from the Orange County
Central Labor Council for two additional labor representatives in order to comply
wifh S8293. This would bring us info compliance with 11 % labor representatives.
The Santa Ana WIB currently has 21 privafe sector members and 14 public sector
members. Adding new labor representatives will not alter the majority balance of
privafe sector members which would be of 57% at fhat point. The Santa Ana WIB
is a active board thaf meets 6 fimes a year to review workforce dafa and action
items broughf forth by fhe various WIB committees. Collectively, the WIB
committees meef approximately 30 times a year.
D. How will the local board assure the local system contributes to the achievement of
the State's strategic goals? [WIA Section 118(x)]
E. How will the local board meet the requirement that neither the local board nor its
staff provide training services without a written waiver from the Governor? [WIA
Section 117 (f)(1)(A) and (B)]
If the local board plans to provide training services, describe which service. if a
waiver is to be sought, a request for Waiver of Training Prohibition must be
submitted for each specific training program.
i F. How will the local board assure that the public (including persons with disabilities)
have access to board meetings and activities including local board membership,
notification of meetings, and meeting minutes? [WIA Section 117(e)]
V. LOCAL ONE-STOP SERVICE DELIVERY SYSTEM
The cornerstone of the new workforce investment system is One-Stop service delivery,
which makes available numerous training, education and employment programs through
a single customer-focused, user-friendly service delivery system at the local level. The
One-Stop system must include at least one comprehensive physical center in each local
area that must provide core services and access to programs and services of the One-
Stop partners. The system may also include a network of affiliated One-Stop sites and
specialized centers that address specific needs.
