I. CALL TO' ORDER.:::
Dr. Joyce Price, 1st Vice Chair, called the meeting to order at approximately 4.10 p.m. She
thanked everyone, including the Head Start delegate agency representatives for attending the
special meeting.
II. MOMENT OF SILENCE/INSPIRATIONAL MESSAGE
Mr. Fayson gracefully gave the inspirational message and Dr. Joyce Price proceeded to open
the floor for business.
Mr. Benjamin Burton, Bylaws Committee Co -chairperson, requested to present his report early
due to time constraints. Dr. Joyce Price allowed the agenda to be taken out of order to
accommodate him. Mr. Burton reported that the Bylaws Committee met and reviewed the
following two issues:
A. Head Start/Early Head Start (HS/EHS) Impasse Procedures
Mr. Burton expressed two (2) concerns with regards to the Head Start impasse
Procedures:
• The designation of four (4) hours for the arbitration meeting was too long.
• The selection process to secure a third arbiter from the community to chair the
Arbitration panel
Mr. Burton reported that the recommendation of the committee was to accept the
Impasse Procedures. He stated that Mrs. McQueen shared with the committee that the
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) will be making additional
recommendations in the near future about the Impasse Procedures. He reported that
Mrs. McQueen will provide the committee with an update in six months, if any, from
HHS.
B. 2010-11 Head Start/Early Head Start Policy Council Composition
Mr. Burton reported that after an extensive discussion regarding whether or not the
Head Start delegate agencies should be at the table, should they have a vote and/or
have any formal say so as far as the process is concerned. The committee's overall
recommendation is that the Head Start delegates should partake in the HS/EHS Policy
Council Composition process for several reasons; primarily to be proactive and to gain
knowledge about what's going on in the HS Policy Council.
III. 'COUNTY'S PROPOSED FY:2010. , 2011 BUDGET
Mrs. Edwards stated that she hopes that everyone present has had an opportunity to review
the County Budget document, specifically the section that relates to CAA. She continued to
state that there are numerous recommendations proposed for the department. She was happy
to report that the County Administration included the CAA Board, Head Start Policy Council
and staffs recommendation as it pertains to Head Start (HS) & Early Head Start (EHS). The
first recommendations were as follows:
• A combination of options to delegate 240 slots to delegate agencies /partner 500
slots
▪ Cut back days in HS by fifteen (15) days & by sixteen (16) days in EHS
• Furloughing Head Start staff by four (4) days
■ Reduce contract by approximately $310,000
All of these recommendations combined will generate a net savings of $3.7 million dollars;
therefore, leaving $500,000 dollars for the County to make up in general revenue support to
identify all the funds needed to sustain the Head Start/Early Head Start program for the next
fiscal year, which is roughly about $5 million dollars.
The second recommendation on the proposed budget is looking at the total savings of
delegating all of the Head Start and Early Head Start slots.
Mrs. Edwards advised that this is a proposal and the Board of County Commissioners (BCC)
will approve the County's budget in September 2010. She advised that the first BCC budget
hearing will be held on Monday, September 13`h at 5:01 p.m. and the second and final hearing
will be held on Thursday, September 23`d at 5:01 p.m.
Mrs. Edwards commented that if the proposal is accepted, it also includes the elimination of
ninety-four (94) positions in the Department's Table of Organization (TO). The ninety-four
positions are direct service staff currently housed at the centers where the slots will be
transferred to the delegates or partnered out to child care providers. She reported that the
department, along with the Head Start Division personnel is presently in the process of
identifying persons in those positions who will be impacted. She proceeded to state that the
County will begin the process immediately even though the budget has yet to be approved by
the Board of County Commissioners. This process has to start now without delay to ensure
that all the necessary measures are being taken care of. A series of meetings with all the
appropriate parties wilt take place to ensure the transition of teachers and staff, as well as the
smooth operation of the program.
Mrs. Edwards stated that if the BCC approves this proposal, the County Attorney's Office has
advised her due to the unique circumstances, the County will have the ability to include
language in the contract requiring the delegate agencies who are acquiring the slots to accept
the current staff employed in these slots. All negotiations pertaining to this matter will have to
take place with the delegates.
Mrs. Edwards reported that the other impact is to eight (8) clerical staff in the Self Help
Division. Last year, the department was supposed to reduce eight (8) of the clerical staff to the
Neighborhood Service Centers but was fortunate to receive ARRA funding, and the
department was able to sustain them. This year, unless there is additional ARRA funding, the
department does not have the resources to support those jobs; those positions will be
eliminated from the T.O. At present, all of the clerical positions are filled with the exception of
one. In addition, there are four (4) transportation full-time vacant positions that will also be
eliminated from the Department's T.O. A special meeting has occurred with those staff that
will be directly impacted.
Mrs. Edwards stated that as the County looks at ways to create greater efficiencies and
downsize because of the deficit, it is figuring out ways of combining similar programs. She
reported that in its effort it has concluded that Housing and Community Development (HCD)
funding will be divided into three county departments: GSA, Housing Agency and CAA. In the
proposal, there is a significant piece that speaks of moving the entire CDBG Home funding,
and sum of the Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) funds that are currently managed
at HCD. Miami -Dade CAA, if approved by the BCC, will assume the responsibility for the
3
functions and operations of these programs. This transition will automatically increase the
department's annual revenue from $96 million to $237 million; therefore, adding 39 positions to
the department's T.O. A series of meetings will have to take place, whether or not it's
approved by the BCC, in preparation for this transition. Mrs. Edwards stated that CM under
its Energy Division already administers CDBG monies, Home Programs, and Surtax Programs;
this conversion will simply be an expansion. She further stated that this is an enormous
opportunity for the department to make a greater impact on the community.
IV. CDBG FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONITO DELEGATE AGENCIES
Mrs. Edwards apprised that at the last board committee meeting there was an item on the
agenda regarding the CDBG allocation of approximately $1.7 million dollars from OCED for the
rehabilitation of playgrounds. An internal process was developed and applications distributed
to CAA and delegate agencies that are in need of funding. There was a cap on available
funds. The funding recommendation from the committee after reviewing and making some
adjustments was $1,215,390 which will be awarded among the ten (10) Head Start sites that
were selected. The remaining funds will go towards the department's internal Head Start
program playgrounds. The department is addressing those needs to rehabilitate CAA
playgrounds in preparation for the Head Start review. Mrs. Edwards asked for the Executive
Committee to pass this item. Dr. Zubkoff made a motion to approve the CDBG funding
recommendations which was seconded by Mr. Fayson. The motion passed
unanimously.
V' LEGISLATIVE:ISSUES: AFFECTING COMMUNITY ACTION AGENCY
Mrs. Edwards commented that every year, CAA advocates on behalf of its services and
programs by participating in Washington every March and meet with the South Florida
Congressional delegation to literally make them aware of ail the great work CAA is doing and
encourage them to continue to ensure that CSBG, Head Start and any other funding CAA
receives be included in the budget. It is imperative that these legislative discussions and
advocacy efforts are continued to guarantee that CAA is at the forefront impacting the lives of
the residents. Mrs. Edwards stated for the record, that any political groups that were
interested in attending were given the opportunity to do so. She then requested Ms. Williams
to introduce the guests from the community.
Mrs. Williams announced that the specific reason for asking for representation of community
leaders is to provide them an opportunity to familiarize themselves with CAA and its programs.
The floor, at this time, was opened for comments.
• Rep. James Bush III — Rep. Bush voiced his support and dedication to this department.
• Lottie Hines, President of the Democratic Club — Ms. Hines also voiced her support and
dedication to the department.
• Hardemon Brothers — Mr. Roy Hardemon stated that he is an advocate of CM and
OCED, and both Mr. Roy Hardemon and Mr. Al Hardeman are supportive of CAA and
its programs.
• Bernard Poitier, Jr. — Mr. Poitier also expressed his support to the department.
Mr. Fayson extended an invitation to all guest speakers to join him at the monthly Issues/Self
Sufficiency Committee meeting. He suggested that they contact CAA to get information
regarding the next committee meeting.
