The Citizens' Oversight Committee, which meets on a quarterly basis, was established to inform the public about the expenditure of bond revenues in an oversight capacity not a decision making capacity. The committee reports to the board and the public on an annual basis. The school board is required to provide responses to any and all findings or concerns noted by the committee and post the committee’s minutes, proceedings, documents received, and reports issued on the district website for the Hermosa Beach community to review. There is no financial compensation for participating on the committee.
The application is available for download and needs to be submitted by 4pm on Friday, January 31, 2020. The board will then begin reviewing submissions and will select new committee members to fill the vacancies in the Parent with a student currently enrolled in the district category. A selection will be made by the board at the February 12, 2020 public board meeting. Employees, officials, vendors, contractors, or consultants of the school district are not eligible to sit on the committee.
