Citizens' Oversight Committee

The Measures S & HV Citizens' Oversight Committee (COC) was established to inform the public about the expenditure of bond revenues in an oversight capacity, not in a decision-making role. This all-volunteer committee ensures that funds from the bond measures are spent solely as described in Bond Measures S & HV. The committee reports its findings to the school board and the public.

The school board is required to respond to all findings or concerns noted by the committee and must publicly post the committee’s minutes, proceedings, documents received, and reports issued. An archive of these documents is available at the bottom of this page.

Committee Composition

Under Proposition 39, the committee includes a member active in the business community, a member active in a senior citizen’s organization, a member active in a taxpayer’s organization, a parent/guardian of a child attending a Hermosa Beach public school, a student’s parent/guardian who is involved in a parent-teacher organization, and pair of members from the community at large. Employees, officials, vendors, contractors, or consultants of the school district are not eligible to sit on the committee. The final composition of the COC was selected and approved by the school board from a pool of qualified members of the community who responded to an open-to-the-public call for applicants.

The Hermosa Beach City School District sincerely appreciates the time and dedication of the COC members who serve on behalf of the Hermosa Beach community.
