Agenda 02/23/2016 Item #16D 6 2/23/2016 16.D.6. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Recommendation to approve a revised Memorandum of Understanding(MOU)with the Southwest Florida Workforce Development Board, Inc. which will provide funds to allow twenty children to receive leadership and job training program opportunities during the school year at two Parks and Recreation Division Facilities (no net fiscal impact). OBJECTIVE: To allow twenty students (grades 7 through 11) to participate in out-of-school time programs during the school year. CONSIDERATIONS: On December 8, 2015, the Board approved an MOU with the Southwest Florida Workforce Development Board, Inc to provide the 2015-2016 Immokalee Out-Of-School Time Initiative (IOSTI). The MOU was not executed by the Board, and staff requests approval of this revised MOU in its place. This initiative seeks to provide recreational and leadership curriculum and opportunities for the youth/teens of Immokalee during the 2015-2016 school year. Also included is the implementation of 7 Habits of Happy Kids throughout each Parks and Recreation out-of-school program. The MOU provides at least twenty youth with these leadership opportunities during the school year. Although the County has partnered with the Workforce Development Board on other similar initiatives; this is the first year the organization approached Collier County Parks and Recreation Division to partner with it in this leadership school year initiative. In the process of preparing the MOU, staff identified a final draft with changes that were inadvertently left out of the version submitted to and approved by the Board.The most significant change appears under Section II.D which previously required staff to obtain the prior approval of the Workforce Board to make any proposed changes in any program to instead require that staff maintain an average daily attendance ratio of 80%. Other changes include correcting terminology and re-numbering specific paragraphs. Copies of the previously approved agreement and the revised version recommended for approval are attached. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with the revisions. GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no growth management impact associated with this action. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item has been approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for approval. -CMG RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approves and authorizes the Chairman to sign the revised MOU with the Southwest Florida Workforce Development Board,Inc.
