Action Items
a. Recommendation to NCTCOG Executive Board for Renewal of the Greenville
Workforce Center Lease
Randy Richardson presented to the board the recommendation for renewal of the
Greenville Workforce Center lease. The current Greenville Workforce facility is located
at 2500 Stonewall Street (second and third floors) and contains 9,141 square feet at a
price of $16.50 per square foot (including taxes, insurance, common area
maintenance, utilities, and janitorial). It had a lease term of April 1, 2013 through
March 31, 2014.
The Board renewed for just one (1) year during the last lease term due to potential
funding cuts for that time period. The current funding situation is projected to be
sufficient to support a workforce center location in Greenville for the foreseeable future.
The current landlord, the city of Greenville, is in the process of selling the building
where the current workforce center is located.
Due to the uncertainty of the ownership of the current workforce facility, Board staff
request utilizing the one (1) year renewal options available within the current lease at
the current rent rate of $16.50 per square foot (including taxes, insurance, common
area maintenance, utilities, and janitorial). This will allow time for an adjustment to the
new ownership and discussions for space plan modifications.
Our real estate broker, Avison Young, has performed a current market survey of other
comparable properties and discovered that the proposed rate for this facility is within
the market price for that surrounding area.
It was recommended that the Workforce Development Board of Directors authorize
the North Central Texas Council of Governments to enter into a twelve (12) month
lease with the City of Greenville for the property located at 2500 Stonewall Street in
Greenville Texas. The lease would be effective June 1, 2014; includes 9,141 square
feet, and a price per square foot not to exceed $16.50 (including taxes, insurance,
common area maintenance, utilities, and janitorial).
Roselyn Lane made a motion to approve Greenville Workforce Center lease renewal
recommendation. Marty Thompson seconded the motion of approval. None opposed.
Recommendation was approved.
b. Recommendation to NCTCOG Executive Board for New Workforce Center
Copier Leases
Randy Richardson presented to the board the recommendation for a new copier lease
for all workforce centers.
In March 2010, The Board transitioned from its former workforce subcontractor, Texas
Neighborhood Services (TNS), to its current one, Workforce Network Incorporated
(WNi). During the time of transition, the North Central Texas Council of Governments
assumed several of the workforce center infrastructure contracts from TNS such as
the contracts for utilities, postage, telephone, and copiers.
Page 2 of 6
Consent Item #5a – May 20, 2014 Meeting Minutes
The two copier contracts assumed by the NCTCOG were with the Xerox and Ricoh
companies. The Denton workforce center copiers (10) were included within the Xerox
contract. The balance of the workforce center’s copiers (26) were included within a
contract with Ricoh.
As an incentive within the negotiations, Xerox proposed reducing the lease amount for
the existing ten (10) copiers in Denton if we selected them as the provider for the
remainder of the workforce centers. The current lease for the Denton copiers will not
expire until December 2016 which prevented Ricoh from bidding on those specific
copiers.
It was recommended that the Workforce Board of Directors authorize the North Central
Texas Council of Governments to enter into a sixty (60) month lease agreement with
Xerox to provide copiers for its workforce centers for an amount not to exceed
$339,360 (excluding overage and price per page charges). The lease agreement
would begin June 1, 2014. Additional equipment may be added throughout the
contract with the approval of the Executive Director.
Charlie Martinez made a motion to approve the new workforce centers copier lease
recommendation. Catherine Tietjen seconded the motion of approval. None opposed.
Recommendation was approved.
c. FY2014 Budget Amendment
Randy Richardson informed the board during the September 2013 Board meeting,
the Board approved a budget for the Workforce Board, staff, and centralized
functions totaling $7,579,385. The balance of the estimated FY 2014 available
funding, $52,832,899, was projected to be allocated for program delivery with a small
portion withheld as contingency funding.
Since that time, the Board’s available funding for FY 2014 has increased by
approximately $1.83 million or 3.03% mainly due to additional carry over, additional
TAA funding, new non-custodial parent-TANF funding from TWC and additional child
care quality funding.
Board staff was informed by the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC) that the North
Central Board would be receiving an additional $143,420 of Child Care Quality
funding for the remainder of FY 2014. This additional funding is to be designated to
support four (4) FTE Early Childhood Specialist positions. These staff would be
employed by the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG). The
positions and the funding to support them is currently projected to be long term.
In order to accommodate the costs necessary to support the additional positions,
Board staff propose increasing the Workforce Board, staff, and centralized functions
budget by $143,420.
- Personnel (Salary, fringe, and indirect)-$81,997
- Rent, Network Services, and Communications-$4,112
- Equipment and Travel-$57,311
It was recommended that the Workforce Board of Directors approve the Workforce
Board, Staff, and Centralized Functions FY2014 budget be amended and increased
by $143,420 to a new amount equaling $7,722,805.
Page 3 of 6
Consent Item #5a – May 20, 2014 Meeting Minutes
Daniel Strong made a motion to approve the FY2014 budget amendment
recommendation. Robert Hill seconded the motion of approval. None opposed.
Recommendation was approved.

Discussion Items
a. Proposed Changes to the Partnership Agreement
Kay O’Dell presented to the board the proposed changes to the Partnership
Agreement that will be presented to the North Central Chief Elected Officials on June
20, 2014.
Proposed changes to be considered:
Article II – Authority, Roles, Responsibilities
a. Propose striking requirement for CEOs to review and approve the strategic
plan annually. While there was a legal requirement for CEOs to approve the
transition plan when the Board was created, there is no legal requirement to
approve annual plans.
b. Propose changing language to “Information on matters of strategic importance
will be made available to the CEOs.”
c. Current procedure for allocation of funds to the WDA are formula based and
are no longer used. Proposed language change is “The Board will develop a
method for allocating operating costs. These methodologies include, but are
not limited to, allocations based on direct costs, cost pooling, indirect cost
rates, and activity-based allocation plans. All cost allocations methodologies
must conform to state and federal regulations and relevant OMB Circulars A21, A-87, A-122 CFR 48 Part 31 and the Financial Manual for Grants and
Contracts. The cost allocation plan will be made available to the CEOs for
review.”
d. Under this agreement the CEOs are required to meet according to the
provisions of the Open Meetings Act. There is no legal requirement for CEOs
to meet under the OMA. Propose removing this requirement for CEOs.
Article III – Local Workforce Development Board Responsibilities
a. Requires that the Board develop and approve and annual and “submit it to the
CEOs for review.” Propose language change to “make it available to the CEOs
for review”.
b. Requires the Board to “…forward written reports summarizing activities,
including planning, administration, monitoring, evaluation and financial
activities, board meeting minutes; copies of all annual and audit reports; and
any other information as requested by the CEOs on a timely basis and at least
bi-monthly.” Proposed language change from “forward” to “make available”.
Article IV – Chief Elected Officials Responsibilities
a. Propose striking procedures for making Board appointments as it is already
included in the CEO Agreement and replacing the procedures with “Chief
Elected Officials will be responsible for Board member appointments and will
select Board members in accordance with the CEO Agreement.”
Article V – Procedures for Development of Local Plan
a. Propose striking entire article as the procedure was required for the transition
plan in formation of the Board and no longer reflects how planning is done.
Page 4 of 6
Consent Item #5a – May 20, 2014 Meeting Minutes
Propose replacing it with “The Texas Workforce Investment Council (TWIC) is
charged under both state and federal law with recommending Local Workforce
Development Boards’ Plans and plan modifications to the governor for final
approval. TWIC reviews each Board plan to ensure that local goals and
objectives are consistent with the statewide long-term objectives in the system
strategic plan. Additionally, state law charges TWIC with reporting annually to
the governor and the Texas legislature on the implementation of the system
strategic plan, and with monitoring the operation of the state’s workforce
system to assess the degree to which the system is effective in achieving state
and local goals and objectives. TWIC also reviews Board Plans and plan
modifications to determine each Board’s progress in implementing strategies
that align with State planning. Local strategic planning will be done in
accordance with the most current Texas Workforce Investment Council
Requirements for Board Plans and Texas Workforce Commission Board
Planning Guidelines”.
Article VI – Accommodating Change
a. Propose term of agreement remain consistent with the term of agreement for
the CEO Agreement.
b. Propose adding a paragraph “This Partnership Agreement is an agreement
between elected and appointed individuals in North Central Texas to facilitate
workforce training and related services funded by the Texas Workforce
Commission. It is not a business partnership defined under Section 152.051
of the Texas Business Organizations Code (TBOC) and is not intended to be
governed in.
Scott McCune recommended the following changes to be made for review by the
CEOs.
Article VI – Accommodating Change (b) – last sentence needs to be changed to “It is
not a business partnership defined under Section 152.051 of the Texas Business
Organizations Code (TBOC) and is not intended to be governed in by.
Article II – Authority, Roles, Responsibilities (c) – last sentence needs to be changed
to “All cost allocations methodologies must conform to state and federal regulations
and relevant OMB Circulars A-21, A-87, A-122 CFR 48 Part 31 and the Financial
Manual for Grants and Contracts. The cost allocation plan will be made available to
the CEOs for review.”
b. Board Committee Service

and recommend items for approval by the full board. A committee sign-up sheet was
distributed around the table for each member to sign up for at least one.

Discussion Item #6a – FY2015 Proposed Budget Preview
Background
The available funding for FY 2015 is projected to be $61,946,741 including Child Care, Core,
and Discretionary funding. This is a projected decrease of approximately $740,000 or 1.2%
as compared to FY 2014 (Please see Attachment A and Schedule 1 for more details). More
funding information is summarized as follows:
•
Child Care:
 Total Funding - Approximately $40.8 million, an increase of $1.5 million or
3.9%.
 New Funding - Approximately $39.0 million, an increase of $1.6 million or 4.2%.
 Carry Over Funding - Approximately $1.8 million, a decrease of $49,000 or
2.7%
•
Core (Those grants that the Board receives annually other than Child Care):
 Total Funding - Approximately $20.1 million, a decrease
8.3%.
of
$1.8 million or
 New Funding - Approximately $19.0 million, a decrease of $854,000 or 4.3%
primarily due to Workforce Investment Act (WIA) reductions.
 Carry Over Funding - Approximately $1.1 million, a decrease of $972,000 or
47.5% primarily due to WIA, Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA),
Supplemental Nutrition Program (SNAP), and Employment Services (ES)
reductions.
•
Discretionary Funding (Those grants that have a finite life and typically are not
renewed):
 Total Funding - Approximately $1.0 million, a decrease of $449,000 or 30.5%
primarily due to the reductions of the Department of Labor (DOL) H-1B and
Community Based Job Training grants.
The $61.9 million of projected FY 2015 available funding is proposed to be allocated between
the Workforce Board and its staff (including centralized functions), the Board’s contractors
(as pass through), and a small percentage held out as unallocated (contingency funds). The
descriptions of these allocations are below.
Page 1 of 10
Discussion Item #6a – FY2015 Proposed Budget Preview
Information
Workforce Board, Staff, and Centralized Functions
The proposed budget for the Board, its staff, and centralized functions (including services
such as janitorial, maintenance, and technology support for the Board’s workforce centers)
is proposed to be $7,796,595 This represents a $73,791 or .96% increase as compared to
FY 2014 (Please see Attachment B and Schedule 2 for more details). Below is a review of
the Board’s major cost categories and other notable budget line items:
Staffing
Board staff positions are proposed to decrease 2.5 FTEs (5.3%) as compared to the FY 2014
budget. These changes include:
• Business Development Liaison (addition of 1.0 FTE)-TWC allocates skills development
funds to the individual Board areas in order to provide training opportunities whereby
a training organization (typically a community college) can provide specific skills
training which is currently in demand by an identified employer. This additional
position would be actively engaged in partnering the training organization with the
employer who is need of the skilled employees.
If TWC determines that the Board has been actively involved within the process
described above, $5,000 per skills development activity could be awarded to the
Board.
•
Training and Development Coordinator (reduction of .5 FTE) - This positon was hired
to provide process improvement training to essentially all the Board and workforce
center staff. We feel our process improvement activities have reached a point where
this position can be reduced from a budgeted full time to a part time FTE.
•
Sr. Quality Assurance Specialist (reduction of 1.0 FTE)-The Quality Assurance
department experienced a reduction of staff during FY 2014 of two (2) FTEs due to
attrition. To help address the reduction in funding anticipated for FY 2015, only one
(1) of the staff FTEs lost to attrition will be replaced. The responsibilities of the FTE
not replaced will be assumed by existing staff.
•
Sr. Operations Specialist (reduction of 1.0 FTE)-The Operations department
experienced a reduction of staff during FY 2014 of 1 FTE due to attrition. To help
address the reduction in funding anticipated for FY 2015, the position will not be
replaced but the responsibilities of the position will be assumed by existing staff within
the department.
•
Grants and Contracts Coordinator (reduction of 1 FTE)-The Board employed an FTE
to manage the Department of Labor (DOL) Community Based Training Grant which
ended during FY 2014.
Page 2 of 10
Discussion Item #6a – FY2015 Proposed Budget Preview
Even though there is projected to be a 2.5 FTE decrease, a budgeted FY 2015 salary
increase of $12,808 (.5%) is expected. This is due to the situation in which the salaries
related to the four (4) Early Childhood Specialist FTEs, that were approved during the May
2014 Board meeting, were only budgeted for approximately 29% in FY 2014 and will be
budgeted 100% in FY 2015. Also contributing to the salary increase is the 3% budgeted
merit increase. Due to a lower fringe benefit rate for FY 2015 (43.0% reduced from 44.1%),
the total personnel costs for FY 2015 (salaries, fringe benefits, and indirect costs) were
reduced in FY 2015 compared to FY 2014 by $13,066 (.3%).
Child Care Quality
The child care quality funding utilized by the Board, mainly to provide professional
development training, scholarships, and equipment and materials for selected child care
centers located within the Board’s fourteen (14) county region, is proposed to decrease
$39,797 (6.9%) compared to the amounts withheld at the Board level for FY 2014. Even
though the Board received more overall Child Care Quality funding (2% of the FY 2015 total
Child Care allocation), a portion of it was utilized to help support the additional four (4) Early
Childhood Specialist FTEs. The additional funding received from TWC to support these
positions was not sufficient to cover the entire FY 2015 budgeted amounts for their salaries
and related support costs.
Other Budget Line Items of Note
There are other FY 2015 budget line item amounts that experienced variances when
compared to FY 2014 including the WF Center Maintenance\Janitorial, Staff Development,
Communications, and Other. These variances, a $109,530 (10.1%) increase, are discussed

Each year the Board’s budget includes special projects to be administered at the Board level.
This year, staff is proposing $285,000 for special projects, an increase of $15,000 (5.6%) as
compared to FY 2014. The special projects under consideration are as follows:
•
Leasehold Improvements - $80,000
Each Year the Board makes efforts to maintain its workforce centers in the best
possible condition to ensure customers are served effectively and efficiently. The
Board staff will be reviewing all of the workforce centers during FY 2015 to determine
where the greatest needs exist. The Board will be updated throughout the year as any
modifications are made to the Workforce Centers.
•
Website Redesign - $65,000
Board staff propose redesigning the Board’s website in a manner which would allow
for a more user friendly format including easier mobile device interaction and content
management.

Discussion Item #6a – FY2015 Proposed Budget Preview
•
Software Development - $90,000
The Board staff initiated an automated workflow process within the workforce centers
during FY 2014 which was one of the first steps in transmitting a portion of the
workforce center process to a paperless system. Staff propose continuing the
paperless efforts into FY 2015 in an attempt to transfer the balance of the workforce
center processes to a paperless format.
•
Regional Labor Market Study-$50,000
This proposed study will capture local wisdom in order to align workforce policy and
program design with local economic development strategic plans. The study will be
conducted region wide and in cooperation with regional stakeholders.
Contractor Allocations
Workforce Center Contractor
The funding available for the workforce center contractor is projected to be $53.2 million, an
increase of approximately $194,000 or .4% (Please see Attachment B and Schedules 3 for
more details). The decrease is a net result of the following:
•
Child Care funding - Approximately $37.1 million, a $1.3 million or 3.6% increaseThe increase is a net result of the following:
 New Funding - Approximate $1.4 million or 4.0% increase.
 Carry Over Funding - Approximate $49,000 or 2.7% decrease
•
Workforce\Non Child Care funding - Approximately $16.0 million, a $1.1 million or
6.5% decrease. The majority of the decrease is due to the net result of the following:
 New Core Funding - Approximate net decrease of $98,000 or .7% in new core
funding including WIA, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and
Veterans Services.
 Carry Over Core Funding-Approximate $972,000 or 47.5% decrease including
WIA, SNAP, (TAA), and (ES).
 New Discretionary Funding - Approximate $38,000 or 12.7% decrease
including Emergency Unemployment Compensation (EUC) and the WIA
Performance Incentive Award. The majority of this decrease is related to the
EUC grant which ended in December 2013.

Discussion Item #6a – FY2015 Proposed Budget Preview
Other Contractors
The Board typically subcontracts with other contractors to operate programs other than the
workforce center related ones. The funding available for these type contracts is
approximately $590,000 for FY 2015, a decrease of approximately $340,000 or 36.6%. This
funding for FY 2015 is dedicated to the Board’s (DOL) H1-B grant, which began in April 2012
and has duration of four (4) years. The primary cause for the decrease is due to the DOL
Community Bases Job Training grant ending in FY 2014.
Unallocated Funding (contingency funding)
The Board usually designates a portion of its funding as unallocated or contingency funding.
As the year progresses these funds will either be utilized for certain projects, allocated to the
Board’s subcontractor, or utilized as carry over for the subsequent year. For FY 2015,
approximately $396,000 is proposed to be designated as such.

(1) The net result of the reduction of one (1) Sr. Quality Assurance, one (1) Sr. Operations Specialist, one half (.5) Training and Development Coordinator , and
one (1) Grants and Contracts Coordinator staff and the increase of one (1) Business Development Liaison staff.
(2) The salary increase was due primarily due to the situation in which the four (4) Early Childhood Specialist were budgeted for approximately 29% (these
positions had a anticipated hire date of June 16, 2014) in FY 2014 and 100% in FY 2015. Also contributing to the salary increase was a budgeted 3% merit
increase. The budgeted fringe benefit rate decreased from 44.1% to 43.0%. The indirect rate stayed the same as FY 2014 at 17.7%.
(3) The increase is primarily due to the annual warranty for the workforce center security cameras that were installed in FY 2014.
(4) TWC requires the Board to withhold two percent (2%) of its annual child care funding to dedicate to quality funding. The Board has utilized the majority of
the quality funding to provide professional development training, scholarships, and equipment and materials for selected child care centers located within the
Board’s fourteen (14) county region. Even though the Board is projected to receive an additional $1.4 million of child care funding in FY 2015, a portion of the
additional quality funding will be utilized to help support the additional four (4) Early Childhood Specialist that were approved by the Board in FY 2014.
(5) The majority of the decrease is due to the swipe card and kiosk replacements for the workforce center customer tracking system are projected to decrease
for FY 2015 compared to FY 2014.
(6) The increase is primarily due to the staff development planned for the additional four (4) Early Childhood Specialists and procurement related training for
other designated Board staff.
(7) The increase was primarily due to additional cell telephone allowances for the new Early Childhood Specialist staff, additional webinars to facilitate meetings,
and projected increases related to network connectivity redundancy.
(8) The primary cause for the increase is due to the projected additional software maintenance costs related to the Knowledgelake licenses and S.Q.L. server
capacity upgrades necessary to support sharepoint projects.
(9) The special projects projected for FY 2015 include software development ($90,000), Workforce Board website redesign ($65,000), regional labor market
study ($50,000), and leasehold improvements for the workforce centers ($80,000).
(10) The majority of the decrease is due to the situation in which the WIA funds received on July 1, 2014 were approximately 10.9% less than the WIA funds
received for the prior year. Board staff decided to retain the portion of the WIA funds normally allocated to the workforce subcontractor from July 1st-September
30th as unallocated for the remainder of FY 2014 to be utilized to help offset the WIA decrease anticipated for FY 2015.
(11) The increase is due to a net combination of an approximate $1.4 million increase in new child care funding and a $49,000 anticipated decrease in carry
over funding.
(12) The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in new core funding of approximately $98,000 (primarily a reduction in WIA and TANF funding) and a decrease
in core funding carry over of approximately $972,000 (primarily WIA, TAA, SNAP, and ES funding).
(13) The decrease is due to combination of the DOL Community Based Training grant ending on December 31, 2013 and the DOL H-1B grant expenditure
projections approaching substantial completion during FY 2015.

FY2014 Financial Update
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
June 2014
Workforce Board, Staff, and Centralized Functions
As of June 2014 (ninth month of FY 2014) the Board’s expenditures are approximately
7.6 % below established benchmarks for this point of the fiscal year.
Staffing Update
A large portion of the lower than anticipated expenditure levels are attributable to the
personnel costs. These costs (salaries, fringe, and indirect costs) are approximately
5.0% behind June targets. This is primarily due to the following:

In addition to the above, the following factors also contributed to lower than anticipated
personnel expenditures:
•
•
•
Fiscal Monitors -Have charged approximately 10% of their time to other
NCTCOG programs due to monitoring reviews occurring slightly different than
originally budgeted.
Sr. Accountant-This position was budgeted as a full time Sr. Accountant position
but has been filled as a Staff Accountant position as of May 27, 2014. It was
filled on a part time basis prior to that and was shared with another NCTCOG
department.
Early Childhood Specialist-The Board approved four (4) Early Childhood
Specialists during the May 2014 Board meeting. An amended budget was
approved for these positions to begin in mid-June 2014. Three (3) of the four (4)
were hired on July 7, 2014. Board staff are currently in the process of selecting
the fourth (4th) position.
The savings from the personnel cost category mentioned above, projected to be
approximately $100,000 for the full budget year, is anticipated to be utilized for other
Board projects occurring within FY 2014.

Child Care Quality Improvement
The Board approved $573,481 within the FY 2014 budget to provide professional
development training, equipment, and materials for selected child care staff and child
care centers located within the Board’s fourteen (14) county region.
As of June 2014, these expenditures were approximately 30% behind established
targets. A large portion of the expenditures are projected to occur within the fourth
quarter of FY 2014 resulting in target level spending by the end of FY 2014.
Special Projects Update
$270,000 of special projects were approved for the FY 2014 budget including the
following:
•
Leasehold Improvements-$120,000-Approximatley $65,000 has been expended
on several workforce center modifications, primarily for carpet, paint, and
aspestos removal for the Corsicana workforce center.
•
Software Development-$60,000- The NCTCOG has hired Knowledgelake, a
software consulting organization, to assist Board staff with developing automated
processes in order to pay approved training providers (colleges and vocational
schools) at the NCTCOG. At the current time, the training providers are being
paid by WNi. The costs through June total approximately $62,000 with projected
costs equaling $109,000 by the end of the project. The additional funds needed
can be transferred from the personnel savings described above. Knowledgelake
is projected to be completed with their portion of the project by August 31, 2014.
•
Security Systems-$90,000- All the cameras have now been installed and training
for the users has been completed. The cost of the equipment totaled
approximately $84,000. The warranty costs will be paid quarterly over sixty (60)
months.
Workforce Center Update
The Board staff was notified that the city of Greenville is in the process of selling the
building located at 2500 Stonewall Street (where the current workforce center is
located). It was understood by staff that a potential buyer had communicated interest in
purchasing the building but at this time it appears that particular transaction did not
materialize.
The Rockwall center was permanently closed as of May 30, 2014. The Board’s mobile
workforce unit will continue to serve that location for a period of six (6) months. That
form of customer service delivery will be reassessed at that time to determine if
continuing service will be needed in that area.
The Terrell center will be closed for a two week period beginning July 18, 2014 to allow
for a minor remodel. The remodel will include new carpet, paint, an addition of a
Page 2 of 8
storage closet, and the removal of a wall to allow for additional space. The mobile unit
will serve this area for that time period.
Workforce Center Contractor
As of June (ninth month of WNi’s contract) expenditures are behind established targets
for the third quarter of FY 2014 by approximately 6.4% or $3.3 million. Below is a
summary of grant noteworthy information:
•
Child Care (Direct Care and Local Match) - Expenditures are currently behind
established targets by approximately 5.6% or $1.8 million. WNi staff are
currently working overtime to enroll new children in an effort to meet target level
expenditure levels by the end of the fiscal year.
•
WIA –Expenditures are currently behind established targets by approximately
11% or $1.1 million. FY 2015 WIA allocations have been revealed to the Board
staff and they are decreasing approximately 10% as compared to FY 2014.
Board staff have communicated to WNi that it would be more advantageous to
continue the current expenditure rate in order to take advantage of carryover for
FY 2015 and absorb a portion of the FY 2015 allocation decrease.
•
TAA-Expenditures are currently behind established targets by approximately
26.2% or 380,000. This funding is dedicated to address the layoffs occurring due
to jobs being transferred outside of the U.S. Layoffs have not materialized at a
rate to utilize the funding as projected for this point in the year.
The Board staff will closely monitor expenditure rates of both the Board and its
workforce service delivery contractor for the balance of FY 2014. Board staff will work
diligently with our workforce contractor, Workforce Network Incorporated, to ensure that
the workforce programs are operating as effectively and efficiently as possible.

Notes
This grant technically has a May 1, 2014 start date but the Board did not receive the contract until the end of June 2014.
Dedicated staff were not hired by Wni until June and July of 2014. Expenditures will begin to accumulate in July 2014 and
approach closer to targets.
The Board received an additional $89,000 of funding in the form of unused TWC salaries and benefits that was effective
October 2013. This additional funding plus the other unused funding as of 9/30/13 totals approximately $195,000. All but
approximately $22,000 was utilized as carryover and expended within the first quarter of FY 2014. WNi expended the carry
over first prior to expending FY 2014 funding. Expenditures for the FY 2014 grant should approach closer to targets by the
end of the fiscal year.
This funding is dedicated to address the layoffs occurring due to jobs being transferred outside of the U.S. Layoffs have not
materialized at a rate to utilize the funding as projected for this point in the year.
Typically the SNAP ABAWD Only funding is expended at a higher rate than the SNAP Employment and Training funding.
This is due to the fact that the ABAWD Only funding is 100% federal funding passed to the Board from TWC and the
Employment and Training funding is a combination of state and federal funding. TWC normally encourages the federal
funding to be expended prior to the state funding. WNi is currently modifying their allocations process which is expected to
reduce expenditures for these grants. They are expected to approach closer to target rates by the end of the fiscal year.
WNi expenditures are currently behind their targets by approximately 11% or $1.1 million. Due to the situation in which the
FY 2015 WIA allocation will decrease approximately 10% compared to FY 2014, the Board staff has instructed WNi to
continue the current expenditure pattern in order to take advantage of carryover for FY 2015.
The majority of this grant will be expended on professional development training, equipment, and materials for the selected
child care staff and child care centers located within the Board's 14 counties. An additional $143,420 was added to this
grant by TWC during May 2014. The additional funding will primarily be utilized to support four (4) Early Childhood Specialists.
Three (3) of new positions started in early July. Board staff are currently interviewing candidates to fill the fourth (4th) position.
Expenditures should begin to approach closer to targets in July 2014.
TWC provides the Board funding to pay for the monthly invoices related to the child care center swipe card attendance
system. At this point in time, the billings have not totaled to the projected expenditures.
The child care contractor plans on utilizing the direct care grant prior to utilizing the local match funding. Local match
expenditures began within the 3rd quarter. WNi's overall expenditures are currently behind targets by approximately 5.6% or
$1.8 million. WNi staff are currently working over time to increase enrollment of new children within the program in order to
raise the expenditure levels closer to target level spending by the end of the fiscal year.
