Councilmember Avilés seeks clarification on the allocation of $336,000 for five full-time positions in the Office of Immigrant Affairs. DYCD Commissioner Howard clarifies that these positions are not part of DYCD's headcount.

The positions in question belong to MOIA (Mayor's Office of Immigrant Affairs), not DYCD
Councilmember Avilés requests details on the roles and responsibilities of these positions

Alexa Avilés

1:07:15

Good.

1:07:16

Love to hear if any of that feedback was integrated into any new iteration or not.

1:07:22

In terms of the Office of Immigrant Affairs, the preliminary plan includes 336,000 for five time, full time positions in fiscal twenty six.

1:07:32

Are these positions designated to Moya or are they new staffing who will cover DYCD immigrant related services?

Keith Howard

1:07:41

Although I would love to have additional staff, but that doesn't reflect in our headcount.

Alexa Avilés

1:07:48

So are they belong to Moya?

Keith Howard

1:07:50

Those are Moya's, yeah.

Alexa Avilés

1:07:52

Okay.

Keith Howard

1:07:54

I'll talk to commissioner Castro.

Alexa Avilés

1:07:59

Yeah.

1:08:00

And I guess for the record, we'd like to understand the details on the roles and responsibilities for those positions.

Keith Howard

1:08:07

So I I I will refer to commissioner Castro.
