June 18, 1976
To the Honorable Mayor
and City Council
We have been notified by the State
that the CETA II Program will continue
through January 31,1977. Presently the
City functions as a program agent for
the state under CET A Title II and CET A
Title V!.
The Personnei Manager is attending a
meeting tnday, June 18, in Des Moines
to ascertain more details on the pro-
gram for the upcoming seven months. It
is our understanding that employees
now under CETA VI may be transferred
to the program CETA II. We further
understand that $223,395 will be avail-
able under CETA II in the period July I,
1976 through January 31, 1977.
We believe there is merit in the City
continuing to function as program
agent for the CETA program for outside
non-profit agencies and also for the
City. Therefore, we would like to have
the opportunity, at the regular council
meeting on Monday, June 21 to explain
details on the program for the suceeding
seven months and the role that the City
may play in the administration of this
program.
