Howard V. Gary .
City Manager
At the last meeting of the City Commission (February 25th
Zoning Meeting), you requested that the administration bring
to the City Commission appropriate resolutions to facilitate
utilizing Garces Commercial College and the James E. Scott
Community Association for training purposes. Since this
effort is to be funded by Federal funds and we experienced
considerable difficulty in developing adequate data, we were
unable to have the necessary documents completed by the dead-
line date for the March 11 Agenda. We now have those documents
completed and an appropriate resolution is attached. The reso-
lution provides the authority for the City Manager to negotiate
and enter into the necessary agreement to provide appropriate
training.
In the event it is the desire of the Commission, we have attached
the appropriate resolution for action on March 11, by the City
Commission.

Community Association
It is recommended that a resolution authorizing
the City Manager to negotiate and enter into
agreements with (1) Garces Commercial College,
Inc., in an amount not to exceed $67,300.00 and
(2) James E. Scott Community Association in an
amount not to exceed $10,000.00 for professional
training services in providing occupational skills
training available under Title II-B of the City of
Miami's contract with the South Florida Employment
and Training Consortium.
BACKGROUND
We have determined that we have a significant amount of money avail-
able to us for training which will not be utilized through our pre-
sent Public Service Aide Program. We are experiencing severe
difficulties in finding candidates to meet the criteria for this
program since this criteria has been made more stringent under
current Federal Regulations. In order to ensure that the funds
are utilized by the City of Miami, it is recommended that we ne-
gotiate and enter into agreements with Garces Commercial College,
Inc., and James E. Scott Community Association in an effort to have
them provide needed training opportunities. Both organizations
have performed this service for the City in the past.
In accordance with City policy, it is necessary that the agreements
be reviewed by the CETA Consortium and the agreements reviewed and
concurred in by the Department of Labor. By virtue of the current
philosophy embraced.by the Federal Government concurrence would
seem mandatory.
