Citizens Oversight

In November 2010, voters approved Measure G, a general obligation bond measure to improve our local Cloverdale schools.  The California Constitution requires school districts to form a committee of appointed citizens to oversee the expenditure of funds and an annual performance and financial audit of the bond funds and projects.  The members of the committee are appointed by the School Board.  Committee members are governed by the rules and regulations as set forth and contained in the COC Bylaws. The committee’s purpose is to inform the public concerning the expenditures of the bond proceeds. 

The purpose of the committee is to actively review and report on the proper expenditure of taxpayers’ money for school renovations:

• Ensure Bond funds are used to legally authorized purposes.
• Ensure funds are not used for teacher or administrative salaries.
• Receive and review copies of the annual performance and financial audits of Bond projects as required by California State law (Prop. 39).
• Provide information to the public on the progress of Bond projects and expenditure of Bond funds.

The committee meets at least once per year and no more frequently than once per quarter until the bond funds are expended. 

If you would like to contact the Committee Chair, you can do so by emailing [email protected] or calling the district office at (707)894-1993.
