Proposition X Citizens’ Oversight Committee to Fill Vacancy
South Bay Union School District seeks community representative

    The South Bay Union School District (SBUSD) is currently seeking applications from qualified individuals interested in serving as a community-at-large representative on its Citizens’ Oversight Committee (COC). The committee oversees the expenditure of Prop X, the $59.4 million school safety and repair bond currently modernizing the District’s schools. Applicants must reside within the boundaries of the District to be eligible for consideration.

    The Prop X COC has a firsthand role in monitoring and publicly reporting on the performance of the program and construction quality.
