INVESTIGATION Moved by Sherwood, seconded by Kehe, to concur with report
NYC - CCOEO of City Code and Judiciary and Health end Welfare Committees'
on investigation of city employees being enrolled with
Neighborhood Youth Corps program of Cook Co. Office of
Economic Opportunity, as follows:
FINDING OF FACTS
1. City did not seek our participation in Neighborhood Youth Corps program
conducted by C. C. 0. E. 0., but was contacted by James Ballee, Chief
Counsellor o:E Illinois State Employment Service, Des Plaines, Illinois.
2. That first contact was sometime in May, 1971, and was by a telephone call
from Mr. Ballee to our City Comptroller, Duane Blietz.
3. Mr. Clyde Brooks, Director of Manpower Division of CCOEO, letter to
Mayor of May 10, 1971 explained the nature of Neighborhood Youth Corps
summer work program, which program was reviewed by Mayor and declined.
Neither letter to Mayor, nor his repsonse of June 1, 1971, was ever
communicated to the City Com ptroller, Commissioner of Public Works Schwab,
or City Council, nor was Mayor's response apparently ever communicated to
other CCOEO officials or their agent, the Illinois State Employment Service.
4. .:'No written material, except letter to Mayor, was ever supplied City,
employees, or parents by the Illinois State Employment Service or CCOEO
as to nature and requirements of program prior to City's participation.
At the time City began participation, the program had been described as
a summer work program sponsored by the State.
5. Correspondence from ISES and CCOEO to City and employees was also devoid
of nature of program, including contract signed by Commissioner of Public
Works wherein parties were City and CCOEO. That contract was not approved
by City Council in the manner required by law.
6. All Employees had already been hired by the City at time Comptroller
was first contacted by Mr. Ballee.
7. Mr. Ballee told all employees that parents were to sign a "Parent
Permission" form but that the income space was to be left blank and was
unimportant.
7 i
10/4/71
160
Page four
8. Income information on two forms was filled out by Mr. Ballee or someone
on his staff at the Des Plaines office of the ISES after parent permission
forms were signed by parents and employees.
9. All income information that was filled in by Mr. Ballee was patently
incorrect and in excess of program maximums. Approval of said applica-
tions was in violation of written procedures by the United States Department
of Labor and should not have been approved by the CCOEO.
10. None of the income information inserted on forms was
employees or City.
11. Committee makes no finding as to basis on which Mr.
the incorrect information relative to income.
12. Mr. Bailee had never handled CCOEO programs before.
supplied by parents,
Ballee inserted
13. Mr. Bailee admits misinformation regarding income should have been
caught by his office or CCOEO.
14. CCOEO funds were not in addition to City pay but were contributions
towards it. Employees did not receivb any more money than they would have
without the CCOEO program.
15. The Mayor and City Council were not informed of the City's participation
in the program until the July 6, 1971 Council meeting when the City
Comptroller .reported "We have a number of students again this year and we
are getting a portion of their salary back this year from the Office of
Economic Opportunity for those students who are still high school students,
it does not apply to the college students this year". This is the only
information the City Council ever received regarding this program.
16. Parents and employees have agreed that CCOEO funds received will be
repaid in fu1:L by them to CCOEO.
17. Mr. Clyde H. Brooks, Manpower Director of CCOEO stated unequivocably
that he believed that there was no intention on anyone's part to mislead
or defraud.
18. Federal, State and County administrative and review procedures relative
to CCOEO and similar funds are being re-evaluated by those agencies.
CONCLUSIONS
1. City should not have participated in CCOEO program without City Council
approval in the manner required for contracts by the City and any other
party.
2. Payment of CCOEO funds to the particular employees as a portion of their
wages was incorrect, as the families of those employees failed to meet
maximum income levels allowed by the program.
3. None of the City employees or parents involved were informed as to
the essential nature of the program prior to participation.
4. No individual involved intended to mislead or defraud any governmental
agency.
5. Proper administrative and review procedures by ISES and CCOEO would
have prevented any of theemployees from participating in the progradw,
6. City would not have participated in the program if there had been proper
communication between City Department heads and Mayor.

Special Committees assigned to investigate the above for
