A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF ANAHEIM SUPPORTING LOCAL GOVERNMENT
INVOLVEMENT IN FEDERAL LEGISLATION SEEKING TO
CONSOLIDATE WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS
UNDER FEDERAL BLOCK GRANT FUNDING
WHEREAS, the City of Anaheim became a Service Delivery Area
for job training programs under the Job Training Partnership Act
of 1982, as amended; and
WHEREAS, proposed congressional legislation seeks to remodel
federal job training programs into a One Stop Workforce
Development System supported by block grant funding; and
WHEREAS, the Anaheim Private Industry Council supports and
has requested the City Council to support the consolidation of
workforce development programs and program funding at the
federal, state and local levels, provided that such consolidation
recognizes that:
1. An efficient workforce development system depends
upon a flexible delivery structure which meets local
needs and local labor market conditions; and
2. The service delivery of any consolidated workforce
development system must be determined at the local
level with the Chief Local Elected Officials leading a
public/private partnership with business;
3. "Primary customer" for service must include
business which hires trainees; as well as citizens who
access the services, which must identify and meet the
needs of the community.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the
City of Anaheim hereby urges the California Legislature and
Governor to strongly support the inclusion within federal
congressional legislation seeking to remodel federal job training
programs, of the active participation of local governments in the
planning, implementation and governance of such remodeling.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of
Anaheim urges that such active participation of local governments
take place through the establishment of geographic boundaries for
Workforce Development Boards which coincide with the boundaries
of the general purpose units of local government (cities,
counties and/or locally initiated consortia of cities and/or
counties which are fiscally accountable for the federal/state
grants).
THE FOREGOING RESOLUTION is approved and adopted by the City
Council of the City of Anaheim this 2~rd day of J~ly , 1996.
