Explanation
This ordinance authorizes the Executive Director of the Civil Service Commission to enter into a not-for-profit service contract in the amount of $200,000.00 with the Workforce Development Board of Central Ohio (WDB). This $200,000.00 expenditure is allocated to support the City’s partnership with WDB for the implementation of the 2021-2022 EDGE Program. The program will identify individuals, through WDB and their partnering agencies, to receive a myriad of programs and services including work experience opportunities, health assessments, and life and occupational skills training, etc. designed to assist participants with successfully transitioning back into the community and workforce. This partnership is necessary because the City does not offer many of the specialized services critical to the success of this program.
