EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

On June 13, 2006, the School Board approved Contract #LC714 in the amount of $247,486 with the Florida Department of Children and Families (FDCF) for childcare training offered by Learey Technical Center for private childcare workers in Hillsborough County.

Florida Statute Section 216.346 has been repealed and allows contracts involving district school boards to be fixed-price contracts instead of cost reimbursement. Amendment Number 1 to Contract #LC714 changes the contract method of payment from cost reimbursement to a fixed monthly price for the period December 2006 through June 2007 and provides consistency for Florida Department of Children and Families training coordination contracts.
