RECOMMENDATION Approval of the Resolution. BACKGROUND The current agreement ended on January 31, 1998. Normally, a new annual agreement between the City of Pueblo, as the grantee for the Head Start program, and Pueblo County Head Start Parents, Inc., would have been submitted for Council consideration prior to the end of the agreement period. A new set of Federal regulations regarding Head Start has been developed for the first time in over twenty years. The guidance rules for those regulations have not yet been made available. The proposed amendment would enable Head Start to continue serving its children and families until the new guidance rules are available. As the new rules are published, they would then be incorporated in a new annual agreement. With the approval of the amendment, the Head Start program can continue to operate without disruption.
