5. DISCUSSION and POSSIBLE ACTION
Accept Staff’s recommendation to approve Strategic Plan – Karen Litvin, Project Masters Ms. Litvin reviewed Strategic Plan summary. Mr. Belisle recommended making a desktop version, or some sort of reminder of the strategies outlined in the plan that the board could reference at each meeting.
MOTION: John Hawkins SECOND: Rod Belisle MOTION CARRIED.
6. DISCUSSION and POSSIBLE ACTION Accept Staff’s recommendation to approve PY2018-19 Audit Report – Jason Swain, NOW CFO Mr. Swain summarized the Audit Report and explained what a single audit consisted of at the request of Commissioner Hunt. Mr. Poole asked if there was anything unusual with the report and Mr. Swain confirmed there were not. Ms. DeSart expressed her appreciation for Mr. Swain’s contributions to NOW. MOTION: John Hawkins SECOND: Zach Poole MOTION CARRIED.
7. DISCUSSION and POSSIBLE ACTION Accept Staff’s recommendation to approve PY2019-20 Budget to Actual – Linda Dugan, NOW Board Treasurer Chairman Erickson asked if there had been any major changes to the budget. Mr. Swain explained that there was only about $13,000 in income through High Concentration of Youth funds.
3
Ms. Dugan requested there be an explanation for the funds that had not been spent down (SYEP). Mr. Swain explained that the funds had originally expired in December, but the state had granted six more months to spend them. Commissioner Hunt said that he would feel concerned if funds were not at 50% or more as NOW was halfway through the program year. Mr. Swain explained that for the Industry Engagement funds, a big chunk of that was obligated to Oregon Coast Community College’s new welding program, so that 72% spending would drop more to where the board would expect to see. He went on to explain that the board should be reviewing where on the budget it shows the subrecipients results, and that those areas of spending should be at 50%. Ms. Dugan circled back to the funds that got the extension and wanted to know why they hadn’t been spent to this point and if they would be before June. Ms. DeSart explained that there had been issues with the parameters of the grant as well as with referrals from DHS. Chairman Erickson explained that it can be very difficult for workforce boards to spend their funding. Ms. Cooper asked if it would be possible to coordinate with other programs around the counties to help spend the money. Ms. Padilla explained that it is possible. Ms. Dugan asked if the board returns grant funds at the end of the grant period, would it affect the board’s chances of receiving funding in the future. Mr. Swain explained that it depends on the funder, but usually when it comes from the state, they will restructure the grants to make it work. Mr. Belisle, who sits on the state board, explained that there is an understanding at the state level that if their funding to the local boards isn’t being spent, then they probably need to reevaluate the parameters of the grants. MOTION: John Hawkins SECOND: Rod Belisle MOTION CARRIED.
8. INFORMATION Program Report and Update – Karen Litvin, Project Masters Ms. Litvin explained the performance report and how it works. Mr. Poole wanted to know if there were differences between the state wide and local goals. Ms. Litvin explained that there were no major differences. Mr. Poole then asked how something like a recession would affect the numbers long-term. Ms. Litvin explained that the main contributor is how much weight the NOW board holds in the state-wide pool. Ms. Ryslinge requested breaking out the performance report under the headings of Invest. Innovate. Impact., from the strategic plan. Commissioner Heimuller asked why the number of people employed were at zero and Mr. Kvidt wanted to know if the number for Dislocated Workers were actually that low in retention. Ms. DeSart explained that there was a supplemental hard copy program report that was brought to the meeting, but there were technical issues preventing staff from being able to get a picture to those
4
who called in. Ms. Litvin and Ms. Smith explained that there was a glitch in the Itrac system so some of the numbers were incorrect. Ms. DeSart explained that a new program report would be sent out as soon as possible. Mr. Kvidt asked if the numbers were annual or quarterly goals. Ms. Litvin confirmed they were annual goals. Mr. Belisle explained that he appreciates having goals and things the board feels they need to do, but realistically he understands that when someone walks into a WorkSource center, their needs are going to be served whether it aligns with the boards goals or not. Ms. Litvin confirmed that he was correct, and people wouldn’t be turned away for the sake of meeting goals. Ms. Dugan wanted to know if the board was sustainable with the goals. Ms. DeSart explained that an increase in resources in the local area is the most important for sustainability. Mr. Poole asked what industry wide credentials were. Ms. Litvin explained that they change so the current ones would have to be researched. Chairman Erickson requested that when the updated program report goes out, the board think about what else they would like to see on the report going forward.
9. INFORMATION Program Success Stories – Diana Nish and Camille Padilla, ResCare, brought in two Success Story videos to present. The first video was for Jerrod Liswig, an Adult participant who successfully went through the CDL training at Tillamook Bay Community College. Mr. Liswig passed the certification test on his first try and was employed immediately. There was no discussion. The second video was for Payden Martin, a Youth participant who started going through the GED program after the mill she worked at was shut down. Ms. Martin expressed how much the program had helped her feel excited for the future and perusing her goals in writing and journalism. Mr. Sabin of ResCare expressed he is wanting to introduce Ms. Martin to his contact at a local news publication to help her get into journalism.
10. INFORMATION Oregon Employment Department Economic Update – Erik Knoder and Shawna Sykes, OED Presentation focusing on Lincoln County’s main points included: Lincoln and Tillamook County’s showed the biggest drop in unemployment since last year in NOW’s local area. Along with this, wide job vacancies have dropped about 15% while northwest Oregon job vacancies had risen 25%.
11. INFORMATION
The State of Economic Development in Lincoln County – Commissioner Hunt
5
Commissioner Hunt gave an update on Lincoln County Economic update as the Director of Economic Development in Lincoln County had retired. He explained that the commissioners are working on deciding what Economic Development means in the county, but there will hopefully be a focus on housing. The county has applied and received a grant to help with the housing crisis and there will be continuing efforts to obligate resources to housing.
12. INFORMATION
The State of Oregon Coast Community College – Birgitte Ryslinge, OCCC President Ms. Ryslinge’s presentation focused on the new welding accreditation program that would begin in February.

She explained that the College’s new horizons included a new building, new courses, and new accreditation.
13. BOARD CHAIR REPORT
Chairman Erickson presented to the board that the Advanced Textile Initiative was receiving backing from Nike™, as well as being recognized as a noncredit course from Portland Community College. Chairman Erickson also mentioned that OMIC/PCC would be breaking ground/ribbon cutting on their new building on January 29th. The last item was second chance programs and to see if the board would want to branch into helping to fund programs that assisted those about to be released from prison to find jobs.
14. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT
Ms. DeSart would be sending an email out to the board to see if they would like their picture next to their name on NOW’s website and if they would like to have a link to their respective websites.
15. BOARD MEMBER COMMENTS Commissioner Hunt reported on the meetings he had about funding and restructuring of the local boards. He went on to explain that after Benton County had submitted a request to the state to break off from NOW’s local area, he had expressed his interest in joining up with Southwest Oregon Workforce Investment Board (SOWIB) to their Chief Local Elected Official. Ms. Dugan asked if Benton County was definitely leaving. Ms. DeSart confirmed that the issue was still under review at the state level, but there would be no definite restructuring before June 2021.

Opening Up America AgainGuidelinesReleased by President Trump on April 16, 2020
5
NOTE: The Governor’s Medical Advisory Panel and the Oregon Health Authority have not thoroughly reviewed the Opening up America Again Guidelines. After review, criteria could be added or modified to better meet the situational needs of the state of Oregon.
Framework Overview
1. Gating Criteria: 3 components� Symptoms – declining numbers� Cases – declining numbers� Hospital capacity – regular procedures and adequate testing
2. Core State Preparedness: 3 components� Robust testing and contact tracing� Healthcare system capacity, including PPE and surge capacity� Plans for health and safety
3. Phased lifting of restrictions: 3 components� Phase 1� Phase 2� Phase 3
6
Three Gating CriteriaApplied on a state or regional basis
SYMPTOMSDownward trajectory of influenza-like illnesses (ILI) reported within a 14-day period
- AND -
Downward trajectory of COVID-like syndromic cases reported within a 14-day period
CASESDownward trajectory of documented cases within a 14-day period
- OR -
Downward trajectory of positive tests as a percent of total tests within a 14-day period (flat or increasing volume of tests)
HOSPITALSTreat all patients without crisis care
- AND –
Robust testing program in place for at-risk healthcare workers, including emerging antibody testing
7
DRAFT – Oregon will likely use modified metrics, especially for rural counties who have small numbers.
Core State Preparedness: I and II
8
I. TESTING & CONTACT TRACING
� Screening and testing for symptomatic individuals
� Test syndromic/influenza-like illness-indicated persons
� Ensure sentinel surveillance sites are screening for asymptomatic cases (sites operate at locations that serve older individuals, lower-income Americans, racial minorities, and Native Americans)
� Contact tracing of all COVID+ cases
II. HEALTHCARE SYSTEM CAPACITY
� Sufficient Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
� Ability to surge ICU capacity
Core State Preparedness: III
9
III. PLANS
� Protect the health and safety of workers in critical industries
� Protect the health and safety of those living and working in high-risk facilities (e.g. senior care facilities)
� Protect employees and users of mass transit
� Advise citizens regarding protocols for social distancing and face coverings
� Monitor conditions and immediately take steps to limit and mitigate any rebounds or outbreaks by restarting a phase or returning to an earlier phase, depending on severity
Phase OnePhase One begins at Governor’s direction after all Gating Criteria and Core Preparedness items are met
10
Phased Approach: Guidelines for all Phases
Guidelines for Individuals� Practice good hygiene
� Strongly consider wide use of face coverings in public
� Stay home if sick
Guidelines for Employers� Develop and implement appropriate policies: social
distancing, protective equipment, temperature checks, sanitation.
� Monitor workforce for indicative symptoms
� Contact tracing policies for positives.
11
Phase One: Individuals & Employers
� ALL VULNERABLE INDIVIDUALS should continue to shelter in place.
� All individuals, WHEN IN PUBLIC (e.g., parks, outdoor recreation areas, shopping areas), should maximize physical distance from others.
� Avoid SOCIALIZING in groups of more than 10** people. Close COMMON AREAS where people are likely to congregate and interact.
� MINIMIZE NON-ESSENTIAL TRAVEL
� Continue TELEWORK whenever possible.
12

within the county committing to daily PPE
reporting to OHA, PPE supply chain reliability
and hospital bed surge capacity.
�Recommendation letter from the County Public
Health Officer.
�Vote of the County governing body certifying
PPE for first responders is sufficient.
15
Phases Two and ThreeWait 14 days, pass the gating criteria again, then move to the next phase.
Phase 2: ** Gatherings increase to 50, non-essential travel can resume, schools and gyms can open under physical distancing
Phase 3: ** Mass gatherings size increases, worksites have unrestricted staffing, visitors to nursing homes allowed, restaurants and bars can have more seating
