A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA AUTHORIZING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF
THE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD,
APPOINTING MEMBERS THERETO, AND REPEALING
RESOLUTION 2000 -015 THAT ESTABLISHED THE
WORKFORCE INVESTMENT BOARD
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1. The City Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines
and declares as follows:
A. The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 ( "WIOA"), which
took effect on July 1, 2015, replaced the Workforce Investment Act ( "WIX)
programs with WIOA programs. Under WIOA, the Governor, in
conjunction with the California State Workforce Development Board,
designates the local workforce development investment areas.
B. On June 23, 2015, the City of Santa Ana was designated a Local
Workforce Development Area ( "LWDA ") by the Governor for the purposes
of carrying out the provisions of the WIOA. The WIOA states that there
shall be a local Workforce Development Board ( "WDB ") established in
each area that will set workforce policy for that local area. Once the WDB
is established, the Workforce Investment Board shall be dissolved as the
WIOA replaces the WIA.
C. The purpose of the WDB shall be to work in partnership with City Council
to provide workforce policy guidance for the City's workforce system in
accordance with applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations
that are not inconsistent with state and city laws, rules and regulations to
satisfy the employment and labor demand needs of residents and
business community.
D. Board members are to be appointed by the City Council, with categories of
membership as prescribed by law. WIOA states that membership of each
local board shall include the following, with the majority of the board
members and Chair coming from the private sector:
1. Representatives of business in the local area;
2. Representatives of local educational entities;
3. Representatives of labor and apprenticeship organizations;
4. Representatives of community -based organizations; and,

5. Representatives of government agencies.
E. The private sector members are to be nominated by a business service
organization, such as the Chamber of Commerce, and the labor, non - profit
and public sector nominations are to be nominated by their respective
organizations. The City Council shall review the nominations in order to
appoint.
F. The City shall serve the proper notice upon the WIB to terminate, due to
the fact that the City will no longer be an LWIA under the WIA because
WIOA took effect on July 1, 2015.
& The establishment of the WDB is necessary in order to bring WIOA funds
into the City of Santa Ana.
Section 2. The Workforce Development Board ( "WDB ") is hereby established
pursuant to the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act ( "WIOA ") in order to ensure
the involvement of the business community, including small businesses, minority
business enterprises, education, labor organizations, economic development agencies
and one -stop delivery system partners in workforce investment activities, as well as to
lead efforts to develop and implement career pathways within the local area by aligning
the employment, training, education and supportive services that are needed by adults
and youth, particularly individuals with barriers to employment.
Section 3. The Mayor and City Council, after review of the private and public
sector nominations for membership, ratifies such nominations and establishes the initial
individuals to serve on the Board of the WDB. A list of the Board nominations is
attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and incorporated herein by this reference. Hereafter, the
individuals who serve on the Board shall be appointed and may be removed and
vacancies may be filled by the Mayor and City Council by motion as provided by section
901 of the City Charter, to the extent that such Charter provisions do not conflict with
the WIOA.
Section 4. Pursuant to this Resolution, the Workforce Investment Board is
hereby dissolved of all duties and responsibilities, and the newly established WDB shall
act to implement the WIOA.
Section 5. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase or word of this
Resolution is for any reason held to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such
decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Resolution. The
City Council hereby declares that it would have passed and adopted this Resolution,
and each and all provisions hereof, irrespective of the fact that one or more provisions
may be declared invalid.
