2 <br /> The Personnel funding would be the County's contribution toward the hiring of a Center <br /> Coordinator, which would be an employee of RENA. For FY 2017-18, funds to allow for a <br /> Center Coordinator at 40 hours per week at the living wage would be provided, along with an <br /> additional amount to provide 10 hours per week of backup staffing time by a temporary <br /> employee. RENA will be responsible for hiring (or retaining) these staff persons as they see fit, <br /> within the provisions of the agreement. An annual budgeted amount for operating costs and <br /> recurring capital costs is provided in the Manager's Recommended FY 2017-18 budget, and <br /> planned for and addressed in future budgets. <br /> RENA officials have reviewed the draft Addendum and agreed to its inclusion in the current <br /> Operating Agreement. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: The financial impact of the Addendum is that the County commits to <br /> appropriating an amount of funding for the center as part of the annual County budget. For FY <br /> 2017-18, this equates to $84,945 for the Rogers Road Community Center. This includes <br /> $38,485 for personnel (employees of RENA) and $3,000 in recurring capital. Operating costs in <br /> the amount of $43,460 are also included for FY 2017-18. These funds will replace and <br /> supersede the annual Outside Agency funding previously provided. <br /> For FY 2018-19 (and future years if renewed), RENA will work with County staff to develop a <br /> budget proposal concurrently with the development of the County budget, which will be <br /> forwarded to the County Manager for consideration in the creation of the Manager's <br /> Recommended Budget for that year. <br /> SOCIAL JUSTICE IMPACT: The following Orange County Social Justice Goals are applicable <br /> to this item: <br /> • GOAL: FOSTER A COMMUNITY CULTURE THAT REJECTS OPPRESSION AND <br /> INEQUITY <br /> The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race or color; <br /> religious or philosophical beliefs; sex, gender or sexual orientation; national origin or <br /> ethnic background; age; military service; disability; and familial, residential or economic <br /> status. <br /> • GOAL: CREATE A SAFE COMMUNITY <br /> The reduction of risks from vehicle/traffic accidents, childhood and senior injuries, gang <br /> activity, substance abuse and domestic violence. <br /> • GOAL: ESTABLISH SUSTAINABLE AND EQUITABLE LAND-USE AND <br /> ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES <br /> The fair treatment and meaningful involvement of people of all races, cultures, incomes <br /> and educational levels with respect to the development and enforcement of <br /> environmental laws, regulations, policies, and decisions.
