Synopsis of Previous Council Action: 6-5-2000 - Mayor and Common Council authorized the City Manager to execute an agreement with the Management and Training Corporation, Inland Empire Job Corps Center and its Corps members relating to training internship work experience for students Background: Throughout the years, the Department has benefited greatly from the youth (ages 15 to 18 years old) placed at our various facilities and parks. In exchange for receiving the additional labor, the Department has agreed to provide supervised, meaningful, adequate work; and tools/equipment to perform the job. These types of partnerships have been key to ensuring the continuation of summer programming for our City residents. Due to the Department's many budget cuts, it is essential that the Department identify and secure outside resources (such as Provisional Accelerated Learning Center) to assist with providing and continuing essential community services. PAL will provide internships for teen participants that can be placed at our senior centers, community centers, and parks throughout the City. Through the internship, teen participants acquire work readiness skills and work experience in exchange for subsidized labor. It is important that the Mayor and Common Council maximize the Updated: 3/31/2014 by Jolena E.Grider B I I Packet Pg.279' 5U 3021 Department's resources, by approving these efforts and authorize the City Manager to execute agreement.
