38. MOU BETWEEN MARICOPA COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND MARICOPA COUNTY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD AND ITS WORKFORCE INNOVATION & OPPORTUNITY ACT PARTNERS Approve a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (“Board”); the Maricopa County Local Workforce Development Board (Local WDB), and its Workforce Innovation & Opportunity Act Partners (or “Partners” as defined herein and as are listed more specifically in Attachment A hereto) (collectively referred to as the “Parties,” and individually as “Party”). This MOU is developed to confirm the understanding of the Parties regarding the operation and management of the One Stop Centers in the Maricopa County Local Workforce Development Area (Local WDA). The Maricopa County Local WDB provides local oversight of workforce programming for the Maricopa County Local WDA. The purpose of this MOU is to define the parameters within which education, workforce, economic development, and other Partner programs and entities operating in the Maricopa County Local WDA create a seamless, customer-focused Maricopa County One Stop Center network that aligns service delivery across the board and enhances access to program services. By realizing one-stop opportunities together, Partners are able to build community-benefiting bridges, rather than silos of programmatic isolation. These partnerships will reduce administrative burden and costs and increase customer access and performance outcomes. The term of this MOU is July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2020, unless terminated earlier as described herein. This MOU will become effective upon execution of the parties. This MOU will be reviewed once every three-years to ensure appropriate funding and delivery services. The Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) sec. 121(c)(1) requires the Local Board, with the agreement of the Chief Elected Official (CEO), to develop and enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Local Board and the One-Stop Partners, consistent with WIOA Sec. 121(c)(2), concerning the operation of the one-stop delivery system in a local area. This requirement is further described in the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act; Joint Rule for Unified and Combined State Plans, Performance Accountability, and the One-Stop System Joint Provisions: Final Rule at 20 CFR 678.500, 34 CFR 361.500, and 34 CFR 463.500, and in Federal guidance. Additionally, the sharing and allocation of infrastructure costs among one-stop partners is governed by WIOA sec. 121(h), its implementing regulations, and the Federal Cost Principles contained in the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) at 2 CFR part 200.

61. AMENDMENT TO THE MOU WITH MARICOPA COUNTY WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT BOARD AND ITS WORKFORCE INNOVATION & OPPORTUNITY ACT PARTNERS Approve an Amendment to the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Maricopa County administered by Workforce Development Board for Arizona@Work Maricopa County and Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) mandated Partners. The purpose of the Amendment is to attach an Infrastructure Funding Agreement (IFA) as required per WIOA. The IFA formally acknowledges contributions of each of the required One-Stop Partners as listed in Section 3.12 of the MOU, adds operating costs for each Arizona@Work Maricopa County One-Stop Career Centers, identifies space allocations and costs attributed to each Partner, and requires each Partner agency and the Board of Supervisor’s Chairman to sign the IFA. Also request authorization for the Human Services Department Director, Bruce Liggett to sign the IFA as the representative for the Community Services Block Grants (CSBG) on behalf of Maricopa County. The County is a designated Community Action Agency (CAA). As a CAA, the County is the recipient of CSBG funds and activities, administered by the Human Services Department. Maricopa County is a designated Local Workforce Development Area (LWDA) as designed by the Arizona Governor’s Workforce Arizona Council (WAC) and the Board of Supervisors are recognized as the Chief Elected Officials. The WDB, at its option, chose to focus on the core WIOA partners to develop the initial IFA and plans to expand as appropriate to meet the needs of the LWDA. The State of Arizona established the funding mechanism, which includes mandating Co-located partners in the Arizona@Work Maricopa County One-Stop Job Centers to share in the costs of the operation of the Centers while non co-located Partners were financially excluded but still must be sign the IFA for their acknowledgment as a WIOA required partner in the local LWDA system.
