Background:
IEDA provides the expertise to meet and confer in good faith with the United Domestic Workers of America (UWDA) for and on behalf of the IHSS PA as the designated representative of the Governing Board.  IEDA assisted the El Dorado County IHSS PA in establishing the first Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the IHSS PA and UWDA, which expired November 30, 2007.  The County has contracted with IEDA since October 2007 to assist the IHSS PA in negotiations for a successor MOU which was finalized April 13, 2010 for the term June 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010.  
 
On September 29, 2009 the Board authorized the Chair to sign Agreement 075-S1010 with IEDA to provide consultation and advice on employer-employee relations to the El Dorado County IHSS Public Authority during the term October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010.  On August 3, 2010 the Board authorized the Chair to sign Amendment I to Agreement 075-S1010 extending the term for an additional year to September 30, 2011 and increasing the total not to exceed amount from $25,000 to $44,000.  As the negotiations remain on-going, IEDA continues to advise and consult with the Governing Board and the Director of Human Services on all matters relating to employment conditions and employer-employee relations of the IHSS provider caregivers.
 
Reason for Recommendation:
Amendment II to Agreement for Services 075-S1010 amends Article III - Compensation for Services to correct an error in the FY 2010-11 billing period, changing "the period of July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010" to "the period of July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2011".  Amendment II will be effective upon execution and the term remains July 1, 2009 through September 30, 2011 with no change to the total not-to-exceed compensation of $44,000 during the stated term.
 
Action to be taken following Board approval:
1.  Chair to sign two (2) originals of Amendment II to Agreement 075-S1010
2.  Board Clerk's Office to return one (1) original Agreement to Human Services at 3057 Briw Road
3.  Human Services to distribute as appropriate
