Summary

The jury authorized submittal of a request to the Louisiana Workforce Commission to transfer up to $100,000 from WIOA dislocated worker funds to the WIOA Title I-B adult program; motion carried July 23.

The Calcasieu Parish Police Jury adopted a resolution authorizing staff to request the Louisiana Workforce Commission transfer up to $100,000 from WIOA dislocated worker funds to the WIOA Title I-B adult program. The motion was moved by Mister Barty and seconded by Mister Barris and carried without objection.

The transcript records the amount (up to $100,000) and the transfer target (WIOA Title I-B adult program) but does not detail the specific uses of the transferred funds. The jury’s action was limited to authorizing the request to the state workforce agency; any final approval and allocation depend on the Louisiana Workforce Commission’s procedures.

Why it matters: the transfer would reallocate federal workforce-development resources within local programs, potentially affecting adult workforce services pending state approval.
