TAB 1 CEO Report: 1. Staffing Updates: On Tuesday, January 17, 2017 Mabel Ramirez assumed the newly created Director of Education and Quality Initiatives position. 2. The Broward Early Care and Education (BECE) Conference: The BECE conference took place on Saturday, January 21 st. The event was a huge success with over 800 providers and parents in attendance. There were 49 workshops offered to child care professionals (teachers, directors, etc.) and for the first time a parent track was offered. 3. Professional Development Space: The ELC is currently finalizing a plan to be brought to the ELC board to support entering into a new lease with Lakeside, the current landlord, that will include the ELC s current space as well as the training space/conference room, adjacent to them. The space had been previously occupied by Career Source (who vacated on 1/20/17). The new lease would have the same cost per square foot, operational costs, and lease expiration but include additional square footage. The new space would be used as a training facility as well as provide additional and very much needed office space. The additional rent cost will be covered by State professional development funding as well as revenue from training events. The training plan includes offering a wide array of trainings, many of which are unique trainings that are not otherwise offered in the community. A training needs assessment was recently conducted by ELC staff to demonstrate the need for the additional professional development. A full summary and cost breakdown will be provided in the very near future for Exec Committee and ELC Board member review. 4. New Health and Safety Status Update: See Next Page for full summary (see tab 1A) 5. Board Meeting Day/Time Survey Results: Late in 2016, in effort to increase attendance at monthly ELC Board meetings, ELC staff surveyed all board members regarding what date and time worked best for members to attend monthly board meetings. Responses revealed the current date and time (the 2 nd Friday of each month) was the best day and time for the majority of Board members. 6. Public Records Request: Recently the ELC received two public records requests. The protocol for handling record requests was implemented and a timely response to the request was provided.

Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc. Coalition Board Meeting February 10, 2017 TAB 1A Subject: Enhanced Health and Safety Inspection Requirements of School Readiness Programs, Rule 6M-4.620 Background Information The School Readiness program is funded primarily by the federal Child Care and Development Fund Block Grant (CCDBG). The recent CCDBG Reauthorization of 2014 represents a historic re-envisioning of the Child Care Development Fund (CCDF) program. The new law made significant advancements to the protection of children in child care settings by requiring states to define minimum health and safety standards for child care providers, and establishing inspection and monitoring requirements for all providers receiving CCDF funds, including license-exempt providers. Additionally, the revised rules establish certain health and safety, training, and inspection standards for providers of the School Readiness Program pursuant to statutory mandate. The revised rule requires all School Readiness providers to have an annual inspection. This includes providers that were previously not required to be monitored. Also, four (4) additional health and safety requirements were created, which are briefly described as follows: 1. Establish standards for emergency preparedness plans for school readiness program providers; 2. Establish group sizes, as required; 3. Meet pre-service training requirements; and 4. Establish written policies and procedures regarding discipline and expulsion of children in care. As the designated CCDF lead agency for the state of Florida, the Office of Early Learning (OEL) administers the School Readiness program at the state level. Pursuant to section 1002.82(1), Florida Statutes (F.S.), OEL is required to comply with all lead agency responsibilities pursuant to federal law. The Department of Children and Families Office of Child Care Regulation (DCF) is the child care licensing authority for 62 of the 67 counties in Florida. The department regulates and sets standards for licensed child care facilities, family day care homes, large family child care homes, and mildly ill facilities in these counties. Five counties: Broward, Hillsborough, Palm Beach, Pinellas, and Sarasota have decided by statute or by the adoption of a local ordinance or resolution to designate a local licensing authority to regulate child care providers in their areas. Local licensing standards must be determined by the state to meet or exceed DCF s minimum licensing standards. Page 4 of 85
To prevent duplication of interagency activities, including health and safety inspections and monitoring, OEL is required to enter into a memorandum of understanding with DCF and each of the local licensing agencies for inspections of school readiness program facilities. All providers who provide School Readiness (SR) services are required to comply with the health and safety standards defined in Rule 6M-4.620, which was effective October 24, 2016. Broward County Child Care Licensing and Enforcement (CCLE) is the local licensing agency for Broward County. CCLE conducts inspections for all licensed and most exempt facilities. Currently, based on the updated regulations, the ELC can enter into a new SR contract with providers who are currently required to be inspected by the local licensing agency, as long as there are no outstanding violations. During the next fiscal year, however, as providers are inspected, the additional health and safety standards will need to be implemented. In Broward there are currently less than ten (10) School Readiness providers (with approximately 17 children enrolled) categorized as exempt providers, who were not required to have an inspection by licensing. Typically, these are school aged programs where the only children that attend the program are children who attend school at the same location. Under the new regulations these facilities are now required to be inspected by CCLE in order for them to obtain a School Readiness contract. Current Status DCF, OEL and CCLE have met several times in efforts to come to an agreement regarding the new additional standards. CCLE is prepared to support OEL with the new School Readiness health and safety inspections and assist DCF in successful implementation. To address the additional workload, CCLE has asked DCF to provide additional funding in the amount of $104,561.25, for 1.75 additional full time employees (FTEs). At this time, DCF has not approved any additional funding for CCLE. Funding for this would require approval in the DCF legislative budget. It is the ELC s understanding that DCF has not included CCLE s request for additional funding in their legislative funding recommendations. Until the end of the current fiscal year, School Readiness contracts will not be greatly affected and new programs (non-school Readiness) applying for a School Readiness contract can be approved if they have a current inspection by CCLE and no outstanding violations. The ELC, however, will not be able to enter into contracts with new programs (non-school Readiness) that have not been previously inspected. So the ELC cannot take any new exempt providers, without inspections. At this time our system currently reflects only seven (7) providers in this status. These providers will continue to receive School Readiness funding until the expiration of their contracts on June 30, 2017. Should DCF and CCLE not come to an agreement (which means the new additional standards would not be implemented) by July 1, 2017, the impact would be huge. As new and current School Readiness providers require new annual inspections, without the four new additional standards (listed above) being implemented the ELC will not be able to enter into new School Readiness agreements with these providers. Each month anywhere between five and 200 programs are required to have their annual inspections. In the meantime, we at ELC have been working diligently to explore all stakeholder Page 5 of 85
perspectives and clarify exactly how the additional activities required under this mandate affect the current CCLE caseload and staff capacity. For instance, ELC has met with CCLE to discuss the details of their analysis and has scheduled an on-site walk-through of the licensing process with CCLE to see first-hand the specific additional steps that would be required for School Readiness provider inspections under the new mandate. In addition, ELC reached out to other Coalitions that have local licensing agencies in Hillsborough, Pinellas and Palm Beach Counties to find out how they have addressed this issue and get ideas that might help resolve the situation in Broward County. On Tuesday, February 7, 2017, the ELC will be talking with staff at the Hillsborough ELC to discuss how they fund their Local Licensing Agency, including where the funding comes from. ELC has also had conversations with representatives at OEL about the sticking points they see in Broward CCLE s current position and what types of alternative approaches OEL might accept. Most recently, ELC staff raised the issue with Broward County Vice Mayor Beam Furr, who is looking into possible solutions. Despite ELC s efforts to date, however, a viable solution has not yet been found. Hence, ELC remains deeply concerned about this impasse and the impact it may have on services for children in Broward County. Considerations CCLE has submitted an analysis of the financial impact it anticipates will be incurred as a result of the additional monitoring activities. At the present time, it is unknown, if additional funding will be afforded to CCLE at the state level (DCF or OEL). Supporting Documentation Attached: Financial Impact: None at this time Unknown at the present time Page 6 of 85

A Welcome Aboard to all the new staff members. Renee commented on the departure of Debbie Bainton who left at the end of October and who had been an integral part of the ELC for many years. Debbie was a big part of putting Board packets together and her departure has certainly been felt. Best regards and well wishes for her moving forward. Additionally, an organizational chart similar to the one provided at the September Board meeting and which was discussed in detail has been included in this Board packet for review. Some of the new staff names/titles have been filled in and not much Page 10 of 85
else has changed. State Funding/New Enrollments Board Meeting Day/Time Survey Items Approved by the Executive Committee Accomplishments Renee stated that in September the State had gone to the legislative committee for additional funding for child care and she was happy to report that 20M was approved. Disbursement of the funds was based upon wait list size and the ELC of Broward was allotted $2.1M. The State indicated how the funds could be used with $1.7M allocated to child care slots. A detailed report shows how the funds were utilized, deficit covered and $1.8M allotted to child care slots instead of the $1.7 indicated by the State. More details to come on how the children are being called off the Wait List which translates to 250 children. The ELC does anticipate that number being higher. The $2.1M is not a recurring fund though the State has included in their budget for the next Fiscal Year. ELC wants to enroll more children off the Wait List without incurring a deficit, therefore a two year plan has been formulated not to include a State fund but are hopeful. Renee commented that the ELC is in the process of getting an idea of what meeting date and time works for all Board members to meet. Irene will be reaching out to get the best dates and times for the 2017 Board meetings. Mason suggested to request the dates and times that members are not available since there are standing meeting times. Glossary of Acronyms is included in this packet and will continue to be included in future packets for reference. Chair reported on the approved items by the Executive Committee on November 7 and November 30, 2016. These were time sensitive contract that due to no quorum were not able to be brought to the Board and therefore were brought to Executive meeting for approval in order to move forward. Under the Bylaws, the Board/Committee is allowed to have a special circumstance meeting which took place to approve items without the Board vote. Therefore, the items are included here for your knowledge. Renee spoke regarding the accomplishments agenda item added as a new agenda item to highlight some of the great things that happen within the Provider community. Renee described the PFP program as an early learning professional development, financially based program funded by the State which moves providers and programs through a series of professional development courses, classes and assessment tools Page 11 of 85
so they can provide higher quality early care and education to our School Readiness children. The first of four benchmarks of the year finished November 15, 2016 and the ELC honored 24 providers in the ELC program that hit their benchmark. Renee recognized each provider and presented a symbolic check to the 24 providers in the amount of $104,827.84 for their accomplishments and dedication. The total amount is to be distributed among the 24 providers. The following providers were recognized: Zantan Williams All My Children Academy IV Katherine Green All My Children Academy I Mairiam Hernandez Charlee Preschool Joy Gordon New Mirawood Academy Mark Spence Paradise Day Care Charlene Calderon- Wee Ones of Hollywood Nicole Cooney Head Start Preschool II Amelia Correa Time to Care Academy Tiffany Romero ABC of Learning and Growing Annabelle Rodriguez City Early Education Center Onica Charles Little Masters Penny Parcell ABC Workshop of Lighthouse Point Nancy ABC Workshop Sheree Alexander Sherri Alexander Family Home Center Tasheba Berry Next2Mom Learning Center Jhanier James Nowtech Carol Adams Early Learning Center of Margate Melodee Lokos Early Learning Center of Sunrise Marcia Rodriguez Early Education Center Wyetta Richards Apple of My Eye Evelyn Newstadt DCA Kids Inc.

Consent Agenda Chair requested a motion to approve the consent agenda. Motion made by Jeff Dwyer and Seconded by Alfreda Coward. Unanimously approved. No discussion. Annual report to OEL Financial Budget Finance Committee Report Reinier Potts addressed questions regarding expenditure and slots in the one year Utilization report and the two year Utilization Report. There will be continued monitoring of the data reported with a look at the factors involved for cost of care such as the age of the child. Renee reported that children are already being enrolled, letters went to families in December 2016 and families are responding. The hope is to have the majority of the children placed in January with providers paid out in January. Close monitoring of response rates to ensure that over-budget does not occur. Cindy Arenberg Seltzer reported on the Children Services Council dollars and to keep monitoring so there won t be a down fall. Chair commented that a detailed report is available to show which funds are being used. Renee also reported that a more defined report shows Wait List numbers that do not include CSC dollar amount and takes into consideration the amount of children that can be afforded and CSC dollars used for that purpose. Question and answer on how the unemployment rate is being factored in and population growth and growth in jobs that are primarily low wage. At this time there is a long wait list where these fluctuations do not really make an impact. Page 13 of 85
Data Dashboard Staff Reports BLI Contract: Chair requested motion. Motion by Jeff Dwyer and Seconded by Silvia Beebe. Unanimously approved. No Discussion. Wait List BECE Conference Governance Committee Report Doreen reported the additional funding that was allotted to the ELC by the State was to be used to enroll children off the Wait List which has not been done in the past couple of years. Based on the initial numbers, 251 children are to be enrolled and as of today 220 families have been contacted with the help of BRHPC. The numbers today reflect 307 that are on the wait list. A more current and accurate number because of online reporting. A good response of families has been received and is expected to continue because of families reporting redetermination online. A time line has been provided to see the effects of enrolled children for January with a closer look of December numbers. The hope is to enroll additional children. Reinier made a brief explanation of the Wait List enrollment calculations and expenditure of the CSC funds. Members discussed the children aging out of the program, factors such as 12 month eligibility verification and tracking, and school board operated programs. Janice commented that the Broward Early Childhood Conference is scheduled for January 21, 2017 at Broward College North Campus 7:30am-3:30pm. On January 20, 2017 there is a Pre-conference at the Education and Cultural Center in Lauderdale Lakes featuring the key note speaker of the conference. There is also a Parent Track available at the conference. Jeff D. commented that it would be a good experience for a Board Member to attend at least once to get a better idea of what the Providers do. Jeff mentioned if anyone wanted to say hello to Chuck Hood to see Jeff after the meeting. Page 14 of 85

referral. Data will be reported on as quickly as possible. Matters from the Board Mason Jackson commented on the great improvement of the outcome measures of the vendor agreement and would like to get to the point of business outcomes of the vendor agreements. Michael Asseff made an invitation with families welcome to the Aim High Special Olympics event for Special Needs children to take place on Saturday December 10, 2016 at 10:30am. Andy Roddick and Bryant brothers will be at the Diplomat Hollywood. This is a Free Event. Deborah Hosey updated on the School Readiness new requirements which include legislative Safety and Health changes requiring on-site inspections. Legislative stated that DCF or local agency would conduct these inspections. Safety and Health requirements show a higher accountability and ensure quality. The issue is with the additional work and who will be providing the resources to get these services done. By Florida Statute it is required that the State provide 25% of budget and 75% is presented by Broward County government. The new requirement is providing a large burden due to the lack of man power to conduct the inspections. At this time Broward County is in discussions with the Office of Early Learning and requesting additional resources. The office of Child Care Licensing wants to support this initiative but the concern is the resources as there is no additional compensation for the additional work. Deborah stated that the ELC of Hillsboro works with their office of child care licensing providing 90% to assist with the onsite inspections. Deborah can provide any additional updates where they are with the County moving forward with the requirements of the inspections. Deborah reported the good news that all inspections should be able to be uploaded this month. This will be in the hands of consumers. Discussion made. It is important for ELC to support by monitoring. Layering of services is being reviewed, which means increasing the amount of locations that require licensing. This will impact the child care licensing tremendously. Better clarity of what is child care Page 16 of 85
and do they need licensing. There are 72 people on a case load at this time with 50 people being the normal. Inspections are being done three times a year. Silvia Beebe commented that DCF can work together on this issue with the DCF involvement throughout the process. Renee Jaffe stated that the ELC is preparing a document showing when the requirements are to begin and what are the implications if not and both OEL and Deborah have been keeping the ELC abreast of what is going on. This should be an issue on the agenda next Board mtg. Agenda Item Matters from the CEO Public Comment Wendy commented that the providers whom were present but were not able to stay to present and on the importance of outdoor spaces. She stated that it was a great loss to not see their amazing presentations they have gathered from the school year. Chair apologized for not being able to view the presentation in the order of the agenda. Next Meeting Date February 10, 2017 Adjourn Motion made by Mason The meeting adjourned at 10:05 am. These minutes contain the action items of the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Early Learning Coalition. They do not include all the Committee s discussions or comments on each matter or issue raised during the meeting. A tape recording of the meeting is held in the Coalition office. Corrections from the Committee will be taken prior to approval at the next meeting. Submitted by Irene Ramos Page 17 of 85
TAB3 Interim Financial Statements Utilization Report and Projections Interim Financial Statements for the months of September, October and November 2016 are attached for your review and approval. Updated financial statements covering the month of August are also attached with corrections to the Monthly Budget to Actual report (noted in blue) that were made at the request of the Executive Committee in November 2016. In addition to the financial statements, a plan to expend a one-time award from OEL for $2.1M over a two-year period by enrolling new children in January-February 2017 is enclosed with corrections and updates subsequent to feedback received at the December 9, 2016 Board meeting. The November Monthly Utilization Report is also included. Beginning in January 2017, ELC staff started working with the Finance Committee to review the financial statement and utilization package format overall and identify ways to improve clarity and content going forward. ELC staff have also begun the process of analyzing and modifying how financial and other data is recorded and tracked to improve the transparency, accuracy and timeliness of presentation to the Board. A summary of initial findings and suggested remedies is attached at the end of this packet. A summary of the major financial highlights of the November Statements include: Revenues: As of November 30, 2016 ELC has earned approximated $37.7M in total revenue, which is 40% of the total annual budget and nearly on pace with the expected quarter end rate of 42%. OEL State/Federal-CCEP revenues are below target at 30% because matching funds from the County that would normally be designated for the first quarter of the ELC fiscal year were applied to the prior year in order to cover an unexpected deficit. For the remainder of the year ELC anticipates enrollments to increase significantly in the third and fourth quarters based on new commitments received from providers and OEL has approved an additional funding request but the final amount awarded remains pending. Children s Services Council revenues are also below target at 26% because funds normally designated for the first quarter of the ELC fiscal year were applied to the prior year in order to cover an unexpected deficit. Revenues have begun to ramp up for FY17with the start of new CSC contract year beginning October 1, 2016 as the revenue earning pattern returns to normal.

TAB 5 Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc. Board Meeting February 10, 2017 Subject: Wait List Enrollment Update Background Information As previously reported, the Legislative Budget Commission (LBC) awarded $20 million dollars to the Office of Early Learning (OEL) in non-recurring funding for the current fiscal year (2016-2017). As a result of the additional funding to OEL, the Early Learning Coalition (ELC) of Broward County was allocated an additional $2.1 million dollars. Based on the October 2016 utilization, calculations and projections for the remainder of the fiscal year, an initial determination was made to enroll 251 children from the waitlist. ELC and BRHPC met and, in partnership, developed a plan (including a timeline) for the enrollment of the wait list children, which is now being implemented. During December 2016 and January 2017, invitations were sent to 333 families, representing 461 children. Invitations were sent based on the child s wait list date and priority category. Children were called off the waitlist from the income eligible (BG8 working families) category (Priority 3). The invitations included the details and process for eligibility determination and placement into services. The response rate to the invitations was 86%, or 398 responses. And, as of January 31, 2017, 236 children, or 59% of the 398 who responded, have been determined eligible and placed into services. It is anticipated that the initial impact of the enrollments will be seen in February 2017, after January attendance has been submitted and will continue in February and March, as additional placements are added. PROPOSED ACTION Based on utilization numbers and updated projections from November 2016, it has been determined that a total of 305 children can be enrolled utilizing the additional OEL funding. As of January 31, 2017, 236 children had been enrolled, allowing for the enrollment of an additional 69 children. BRHPC has sent out invitations and is processing the enrollments. Page 21 of 85

Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc. Notes to the Financial Statements For The Fifth Month Ended November 30, 2016 (1) The Early Learning Coalition of Broward County ("ELC") budgets, as revenue, 100% of the OEL Funding Agreement. Revenue from the Office of Early Learning (OEL) comprises both federal and state funds. (2) (3) (4) The full accrual basis of accounting is utilized by ELC. Under the accrual basis, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they are earned. Expenses are recognized in the accounting period in which the liability is incurred. The Net Assets Undesignated represents.24% of the total Operating Budget. State law requires that VPK providers receive a prepayment at the beginning of each month. During the fiscal year, these expenditures are reported as revenue and expense when they are incurred. At year end, any outstanding balances will be recorded to the corresponding asset and liability account. Page 62 of 85
TAB 7 Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc. Finance Committee Meeting January 25, 2017 Subject: Initial Administrative Department Assessment Background Information In an effort to create a more efficient environment and fill operational gaps, ELC underwent a comprehensive reorganization. During that process, the CEO expressed concerns related to fiscal and contract operations and placed a high priority on making an assessment of risks and control issues and developing a plan for corrective action. An initial review of fiscal and contract operations conducted in December 2016 by the incoming Chief Administrative Officer at ELC has demonstrated the need for a comprehensive update and revision of the fiscal policy manual as well as the procedures related to it. It is expected to take six months to implement changes and present a finalized revision to the Governance Committee. In particular, the following areas would benefit from improvements: 1. Cash and purchasing account control: Cash disbursements and purchases are currently managed on an irregular, ad hoc schedule that allows little time for planning and careful review of the full cash in and outflow picture prior to deadlines or invoice due dates. Improvements will include (but will not be limited to): A structured cash events calendar, A detailed monthly cash flow projection, Better and more timely record-keeping in the financial database, and A stronger culture of transparency and control, including staff training. In the meantime, employee access to online cash transmission and purchasing portals has already been re-structured to: Implement dual custody and workflow authorization levels where ever possible; Clean up user lists and permissions and develop a map that lists employee access rights, identifies super-users and provides instructions for removing super-users when necessary for business continuity. 2. Purchasing, invoice and payment review/ authorization process: The internal review and authorization process also lacks transparency and clear guidelines that staff need to ensure informed decision-making and efficiency at every Page 63 of 85
level. The purchase order process is paper driven, poorly understood by staff, difficult to match against budgeting tools, difficult to track and sometimes results in partial, inaccurate or duplicate requests getting submitted hurriedly against looming deadlines. Invoice approval responsibilities are not formally assigned or wellunderstood by staff which creates a bureaucratic, sometimes chaotic collection of unnecessary forms and signatures. Cash disbursement authorization batches are not routinely scheduled with advance notice to signatories to ensure availability. Suggested improvements to these processes include: Updates to policies and procedures to clarify authorization thresholds, delegation of responsibilities, workflow and steps required for varying types of items. Staff training on the policies, purpose and best practices for each step in the purchasing process; Implementation of existing electronic purchase order software with workflow authorization and online tracking; Direct coordination between purchase order system and budget line item tracking tools with periodic review and updates; Clearer standards for back up documentation that accompanies requests including better background information and context; and Fewer forms and coversheets to reduce confusing clutter. 3. Accounting, payroll processing and reporting: In the inefficient environment created by the transaction bottlenecks described above, the task of recording transactions in the financial database has been relegated to a low priority and is frequently delayed at length, which in turn causes additional delays in financial reporting, budget/actual review, and cash flow analysis. Biweekly payroll, moreover, is processed twice using two separate, but parallel systems that require a lengthy manual reconciliation with one another; which particularly slows entry in the financial system and adds lag time to financial reporting. The pressure to complete reports on time, finally, leaves staff little or no opportunity to conduct routine monthly account reconciliations that are vital to catching errors and ensuring quality. Suggested remedies to these problems include: Comprehensive one-time clean-up of entry errors found for the entire fiscal year. Systematic requirement to record transactions in the financial database close to real time, within one business day of the triggering event, with particular emphasis on recording invoices due, cash events and invoices receivable; Cross-train staff in more than one portfolio of duties to ensure coverage and business continuity when individuals are on leave or behind schedule; Eliminate redundant payroll processing system and maximize capability of live system to automate payroll data transfer; Page 64 of 85
Implement monthly closing procedures to create fixed dates after which financial statements can be produced; Realign task distribution to improve segregation of duties and make logical assignments of reconciliation responsibilities; Upload and maintain annual budgets and reforecasts directly into the financial system; Create financial statement templates in the financial software to facilitate ad hoc analysis and automate monthly statement production; Allow program staff to view reports on demand using executive view access to promote organization wide engagement with financial data. 4. Contract tracking and compliance: Prior to the recent reorganization at ELC, staff who were responsible for maintaining contract files did not coordinate or share records with staff who processed financial transactions related to contracts, and it was difficult for either party to know to the full compliance status of the record when making decisions. On the fiscal side in particular, this led to payments issued beyond the maximum payment limit of agreements, incomplete purchase orders, and difficulty creating contract performance reports for the Board and other customers. Creation of a user-friendly, systematic contract financial status tracker within the contract file that lists transactions and captures up to date information on the status of deliverables, invoices, payments, advances and deferred revenue all within the financial constraints of the contract term; Integration of contract tracking with the invoice approval process to ensure disbursements are within contract parameters; Integration of contract tracking with the budgeting process to ensure that all appropriate staff participate in estimating revenues, cash flows, and expenses; Integration of contract performance data collection and analysis with contract compliance records; Cross training contract and fiscal staff in compliance matters from the perspective of their counterpart to synchronize and improve communication with each other as well as subcontractors. 5. Budget development and tracking In addition to creating a more user-friendly and structured process for generating financial statements, ELC s internal budget process will better assist the organizational decision making process if it is more systematically updated, Page 65 of 85
transparent and better integrated with all other financial and contract management procedures. Proposed steps to be taken toward that goal include the following: A firm and transparent annual budget development and approval calendar established at the beginning of each fiscal year. A firm and transparent schedule for submission of first, second and third quarter forecasts to better inform development of the annual budget in the following year. A more transparent, user-friendly internal budgeting tool that allows for easy adhoc scenario modeling, detailed allocation by a variety of filters and integration with the financial database, purchase order tracking system, and contract monitoring tools. Development of a simplified and transparent financial performance dashboard to complement presentation of utilization and other performance metrics in monthly reporting. Development of a transparent, user-friendly annual cash flow budgets with monthly reforecasting to reflect updates and actuals. Development of annual staffing plan budget with quarterly reforecasts as part of the overall budget package, including justifications for new positions, annual compensation increase proposals, and reserve pools set aside for merit pay, as appropriate. Updates to the chart of accounts to simplify tracking of overall staff costs and improve transparency on consulting and other service-related line items. Update the annual cost allocation methodology among state OCA codes to better reflect level of effort on contracts and improve meaningfulness of staff time and attendance tracking.

Early Learning Coalition of Broward County, Inc. Coalition Board Meeting February 10, 2017 TAB 10 Subject: CCEP Additional Funding & Mid-Year Waiver Background Information The Child Care Executive Partnership (CCEP) is a statewide program that has the ability to allocate matching dollars to business, non-profit and government dollars (in that priority order) who provide dollars for child care to eligible employees and/or income eligible children in the community in need of care. The Child Care Executive Partnership s Board i s appointed by the Governor and responsible for oversight. The goal of the CCEP board is to maximize CCEP funding. The board reviews expenditures each quarter to assess the status of existing funding levels and to plan for maximum funding utilization. The CCEP board meets mid- year to consider the possible reallocation of dollars that are projected to be under-spent by Coalitions. During this mid-year process Coalitions utilizing less than the 85%, of their targeted expenditure rate are required to submit a formal waiver request or de-obligate funds. As of November, Broward was below target at 71% of the expected 85%. This underexpenditure rate occurred because during last fiscal year there was lower-than-expected provider participation, so most of the county funds along with some United Way dollars were used to match the state funds at 50%. As a result, there were only $132K remaining in County funds to match the non-provider portion of the purchasing pool for this fiscal year. Once the new contract year started in Oct 2016, the Coalition was able to ramp up the CCEP spending. The attached CCEP utilization chart illustrates how the Coalition is on track to spend its entire initial allocation. Since September, the Coalition obtained commitments from an additional 18 local businesses who agreed to assist their eligible employees with the cost of child care. Therefore, on January 10, 2017, the Coalition submitted a formal waiver request, as well as a reallocation request to the Office of Early Learning for $200,000 in order to serve an additional 125 children for the remaining contract period. On January 12, 2017, the CCEP Board approved the Coalition s waiver request, as well as, the additional CCEP funding request. The Coalition received the Notice of Award from the Office of Early Learning (OEL) on January 25, 2017 in the amount of $141,871 to be used only for CCEP slots and slot related costs. Therefore, the new total funding allocation from CCEP for fiscal year 2016-2017 is $2,692,950. PROPOSED ACTION Allocate the additional funding received from the Office of Early Learning for CCEP to Broward Regional Health Planning Council, Inc. (BRHPC) Contract (ELC 2) for slots. The ELC2 Contract and Budget Amendment will be brought forth to the next Finance Committee March 1st and the Executive Committee meeting on March 2nd 2017 for approval Page 72 of 85
