Community Application for Opening on RUSD Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee

 

On November 6, 2012, the voters of the Rowland Unified School District approved a One Hundred Fifty Eight Million Eight Hundred Thousand dollar ($158,500,000) bond proposal to upgrade and build school facilities across the District. With the passage of the bond, it is required to establish a Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee. The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee shall have at least seven (7) members. 

The Committee is designed to include individuals with business experience, senior citizens, and members of the community. Members must be residents in the Rowland Unified School District. District officials, employees, vendors and contractors are prohibited from serving on the committee. 

The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee serves in an advisory role and does not have decision-making authority, but will review quarterly expenditure reports produced by the District to ensure that bond proceeds are expanded only for the purpose set forth in the ballot measure. The Committee will also review the audits and reports of expenditures of bond proceeds and will inform public concerning the same. 

Individuals a least 18 years of age who reside within the geographic boundary of the Rowland Unified School District are eligible to apply for appointment to the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee by completing the attached application form and returning it to:
