A Proposition 39 general obligation bond measure requires the creation of a Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee (BOC). AUSD voters approved Measure I in November 2014 with 62.75% approval.
The District advertised and solicited applications for all categories of members to sit on the seven-member Committee. Applications were due to the District Office on September 29, 2017. The proposed 2017-2018 BOC members reflect a combined group that have a vast array of experiences and proven commitment to the District.
The Superintendent recommends the following membership for a two year term:
1. Senior Citizen: Don Sherratt
2. Parent in Alameda: John Baum
3. Parent in Alameda Active in a Parent-Teacher Association: Michelle Pero
4. At-Large Community Member: Kimberly Carim
5. At-Large Community Member: Sarah Olaes
Of the applications received, none applied as a member active in a bona fide taxpayer association or business representative. The District is now seeking additional applications from the community for these openings. The application is attached to the board item and is also available on the AUSD website. The Board will continue to advertise and actively seek these committee members.
Applications can be faxed to 510.522.6926 or mailed to the AUSD District Office, 2060 Challenger Drive, Alameda, 94501, Attention: Superintendent.
