Issuance 13-2023: Designation of a Local Fiscal Agent

This Issuance describes the circumstances and process whereby a Chief Local Elected Official (CLEO) may delegate the management of Local Workforce Development Area (LWDA) grant funds to a Local Fiscal Agent (LFA). Designation of a fiscal agent does not relieve the CLEO of liability for the misuse of grant funds. If the CLEO designates a fiscal agent, the CLEO must ensure this agent has clearly defined roles and responsibilities.
