(a) A board may employ professional, technical, and support staff to carry out its planning, oversight, and evaluation functions.
(b) A board's staff shall be separate from and independent of any organization providing workforce education or workforce training and services in the workforce development area. A board's staff may not direct or control the staffing of any entity providing one-stop workforce services.

(1) arranges for independent evaluation of any other workforce services provided by the staffing organization; and
(2) requests and obtains from the Texas Workforce Commission a waiver of the separate staffing requirement and of the requirement under Section 2308.264(a).
(d) A request for a waiver under Subsection (c)(2) must contain a detailed justification for the waiver, including:

(2) prior experience;
(3) geographic or budgetary considerations; and
(4) availability of qualified applicants.
