Section 11.2.5.10 - MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING (MOU)
Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024
The MOU is the functional tool, as well as the visionary plan for how the local boards and one-stop partners will work together to create and execute a unified service delivery system that meets the needs of their shared customers. The following additional requirements for MOUs apply:
A. Local boards may develop a single "umbrella" MOU that addresses overarching issues for the local board, chief elected officials, and required one-stop partners as they relate to the local one-stop delivery system. Alternatively, they may choose to enter into a separate MOU with each individual partner, or group of partners;
B. Each required one-stop partner entering into the MOU development and negotiation process designates a specific individual with authority to commit financially and programmatically on behalf of the required partner. This individual may be staff from a state agency's central, regional, or local office or a local representative providing services for a state-level entity through a contract, grant, or similar agreement.
C. MOUs must identify and detail how each required partner will contribute its proportionate share of infrastructure costs for the one-stop system.
D. The local board must report failure to execute any MOU with a required one-stop partner to DWS. If DWS cannot assist the local board to resolve the impasse, the failure to resolve the impasse will be reported to the US Secretary of Labor and the head of any other agency with responsibility for oversight of the required partner's program.
