Purpose
This Management Bulletin (MB) offers existing California Department of Education (CDE), contractors the opportunity to request continued funding for fiscal year (FY) 2009-10. California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 5, Section 18010, states, "Contractors that intend to accept the offer to continue services in the subsequent contract period shall respond to a continued funding application request from the Child Development Division in accordance with the instruction and timelines specified in the request.” We encourage each contractor to review this information as soon as possible to ensure that appropriate time and resources are reserved to complete the process. A completed application packet and three copies are due to the Child Development Division (CDD) by Friday, December 5, 2008, 5 p.m.
Background
CCR, Title 5, Section 18010(e) states, "Failure to respond within the timelines specified in the continued funding application request shall constitute notification to the Child Development Division of the contractor's intent to discontinue services at the end of the current contract period." Failure to respond to requests from the CDD for additional information may also result in an adverse action for the agency.

The CDE does not require formal board approval of the application package. In most cases, board action is only required to sign the formal contract.
