2022-2023 Annual Report
Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee
Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee
Letter from the Committee Chair
To: The Board of Trustees and Residents of the San José • Evergreen Community College District
The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee is pleased to present its 2022-2023 Annual Report on the District's two general obligation bond programs. In November of 2010, the voters demonstrated their confidence in the District and passed Measure G-2010, a $268M general obligation bond initiative. In November 2016, the voters again supported the District by passing Measure X, a $748M general obligation bond initiative. These bond measures, established under Proposition 39, have the common goal of improving and equipping the teaching environments to better serve our students' needs. The Committee and the District wish to thank the community for their continued support of our students.
The principal duties of the Committee include informing the public about the expenditure of Measure X and G-2010 bond proceeds; ensuring that the District spends bond money only for the purposes set forth in both measures; and producing an annual report of the Committee’s proceedings and activities, including a compliance statement. In contrast, the Board of Trustees’ responsibilities include but are not limited to overseeing the bond program, maintaining the list of authorized bond projects, prioritizing projects, and monitoring progress and spending on individual projects, and overseeing the annual performance and financial audits.
The Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee aims to meet quarterly during the fiscal year to review Measure X and G-2010 activities. At these meetings, District and program management staff provide the Committee with written and oral reports and presentations, including:
- Measures X and G-2010 Bond Program and Project Updates
- Measures X and G-2010 Quarterly Summary Reports
- Measures X and G-2010 Bond List Revision Reports
- Staff Reports and District Updates
In addition to its meetings with staff to review Measures X and G-2010 spending, the Committee relied on the annual independent performance and financial audits conducted by CWDL, LLP and an oral presentation by the auditor to carry out its duties.
In conclusion, the Committee wishes to report that, to the best of its knowledge, Measure X and G-2010 bond proceeds have only been spent for the purposes set forth in the ballot language as approved by the voters, and is in full compliance with the responsibilities as described in Article XIIIA, Section 1 (b) (3) of the California State Constitution. The performance and financial audits can be viewed here.
Very truly yours,
Anna Liza Navarro
