Part 8. WINDHAM SCHOOL DISTRICT
Chapter 300. GENERAL PROVISIONS
The Windham School District Board of Trustees files this notice of intent to propose a new §300.3, Employment Referral Services for Offenders, which authorizes the District to adopt a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), the Texas Workforce Commission (TWC), the Texas Youth Commission (TYC), and the Windham School District (WSD).
The purpose of the rule is to establish the responsibilities of each agency in the administration of the Project for Reintegration of Offenders (Project RIO).
David McNutt, Chief Financial Officer for the Windham School District, has determined that, for the first five (5) years the rule will be in effect, enforcing or administering the rule will not have foreseeable implications related to costs or revenues for state or local government.
Mr. McNutt has also determined that, for the first five (5) year period, there will not be an economic impact on persons required to comply with the rule. There will not be an effect on small or micro businesses. The anticipated public benefit, as a result of enforcing the rule, will be to provide employment referral services for offenders for their successful reentry into the community.
Comments should be directed to Michael P. Mondville, General Counsel, Windham School District, P.O. Box 40, Huntsville, Texas 77342, Michael.Mondville@wsdtx.org. Written comments from the general public should be received within 30 days of the publication of this rule.
The new rule is proposed under Texas Government Code, §501.095 and Texas Labor Code, §306.004 and §306.005.
