RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board consider making appointments to the Workforce Development Board — Regional Partnership. 3 MEMO To: Donna Baker, Clerk to the Board From: Nancy Coston, Social Services Director Date: November 9, 2016 Subject: Workforce Development Board The Regional Partnership Workforce Development Board serves Alamance, Montgomery, Moore, Orange and Randolph Counties. Its responsibilities include the oversight of NCWorks Career Centers and Building Futures as well as the budgets associated with Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) funding. Each county in North Carolina must patriciate in one of the boards and this is accomplished through a signed agreement among the respective county commissioners. Several years ago, the Regional Partnership was expanded from serving Alamance, Randolph and Orange to include Montgomery and Moore. At that time, Orange County considered other options since this geographic group and the employment interests were not well aligned with local needs. The Board of County Commissioners made a decision at that time to suspend any new appointments to the partnership board while alternatives were considered. No viable alternative was found at that time and Orange County has remained with this partnership. Although there is still interest in exploring other options that might better reflect the economic interests of Orange County, in the interim it is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners approve appointments to this board. Counties are not given a specific number of board appointments and most of the appointments are required to be private sector. A number of the positions are also required to represent certain public agencies, such as social services. Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information. 4 Board and Commission Members And Vacant Positions Workforce Development Board-Regional Partnership (CURRENTLYNOT ACCEPTIN Meeting Times: day-time meeting quarterly Terms: 2 Contact Person: Linda Parker Meeting Place: locations in Orange,Alamance&Randolph Positions: 4 Length:3 years Contact Phone: 336-629-5141 Description: Members are appointed by the Boards of Commissioners from Randolph,Alamance,and Orange County-six each.
