84B.3 Workforce development centers — location.
A workforce development center, as provided in section 84B.2, shall be located in each service delivery area. Each workforce development center shall also maintain a presence, through satellite offices or electronic means, in each county located within that service delivery area. For purposes of this section, “service delivery area” means the area included within a merged area, as defined in section 260C.2, realigned to the closest county border as determined by the department of workforce development. However, if the state workforce development board determines that an area of the state would be adversely affected by the designation of the service delivery areas by the department, the department may, after consultation with the applicable local workforce development boards and with the approval of the state workforce development board, make accommodations in determining the service delivery areas, including but not limited to the creation of a new service delivery area. In no event shall the department create more than sixteen service delivery areas.
