DO WE DESERVE A PHONY BALONEY BOND OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE?

When the WCCUSD went to the people before the March 2020 election asking for an additional $575 million—to add to the $1.8 billion the taxpayers have already given to the District to refurbish or replace their crumbling facilities—District Staff touted the well coordinated and efficient oversight through the Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC).

Now that the bond measure has passed and the District is preparing to sell the bonds, the very same District Staff has placed before the Board of Education a new Board policy that will oversee the CBOC.

The problem is that if the Board approves of this new policy, the CBOC will be little more than those phony baloney carboard cutout fans we see at sporting events.

While Proposition 39—passed in November of 2000—requires that the CBOC be independent of the Board and the District, this new board policy will transform the oversight of the Bond Program from an independent body to a Staff controlled body.

For example:

  • Staff will decide when the CBOC may meet. This may be quarterly but may also be only once per year.
  • Staff will set the CBOC agendas—deciding what subjects the CBOC may discuss.
  • Staff will write the minutes so the official record will be what Staff wants the public to know about (and nothing else).
  • Reports from CBOC members must be approved by staff and be in writing.
  • Required Chair reports must be run by staff first and be approved by the CBOC to ensure that what is reported has been approved by the CBOC.
  • Staff will decide which CBOC applications to process and forward to the Board for consideration.
  • The composition of the CBOC will be limited to ONLY what is required in Prop 39 (of the seven positions, five are mandated and there is no requirement that these CBOC members even live in West County. This is a severe limitation on the diversity, qualifications and abilities of the applicants).
  • No access to the auditors.

This is an extremely complex issue.  To learn more and to read the proposed board policy, please use the links below.

When we heard about the $48 million budget deficit last year, how many of us asked “How could this happen? Wasn’t anyone paying attention?”

And now some of the very same District Staff want to play with nearly three quarters of a billion dollars of our money—with a phony baloney oversight committee.  Remember when we were being investigated by the Grand Jury, the District Attorney, the State Attorney General, the FBI, the SEC and the IRS?  Does anyone want to invite these people back into our house?

If you believe that the people of West County deserve better than this, reach out to your elected Board members and the new Superintendent to let them know what you think:

    The need for more legitimate hacking companies are rising each passing day because of the magnitude of scams being run on the Internet. I know what I went through before I was able to contact Osecybersailing to work on my case after getting scammed multiple times and trying to retrieve back my lost investment funds. After I have invested $670k usd with a fraudulent crypto investment company and i lost everything in the space of one month and got scammed again and again trying to find a solution which wasn’t easy to come by given the circumstances that brought about the incident, getting scammed multiple times is never a good experience for anyone involved which was what exactly happened to me when I got scammed investing into crypto currency. Many posing on the Internet as hacking companies aren’t really what they are because most of them are scammers waiting for a prey to devour, I got referred to reach out to Osecybersailing through a friend and after I investigated about their legitimacy I came across many of their testimony from their satisfied clients that got their lost investment funds retrieved working with this legitimate and evergreen hacking institute which also changed my story helping me retrieve back my lost investment funds. Many of the testimony really were saying great and worthy things about how the company saved them from financial loss, I decided to hire them after many consideration and they didn’t disappoint me by making the choice of choosing them after what I have experienced lately trying to get my funds back from the scammers. They proved they can be trusted with the recovery of lost investment funds which is why I wrote this down for other victims of scam who wishes to ever retrieve back their lost investment funds to let Osecybersailing solve their case, they’re worthy and has what it takes to restore back your funds and peace of mind. If you also wish to check your partner Whatsapp conversation to know if he/she is cheating then Osecybersailing is the best team for you.
    If you find yourself lost in the depths of lost Bitcoin, facebook and Whatsapp hacking to catch your cheating partner, let Osecybersailing’s team guide you towards the light of redemption.

    I tried getting a car loan sometime last year but my credit score of about 521 ruined the process. Since I was in desperate need of a car due to the nature of my new job, I resorted to making online research on how I could restore my credit to a minimum of 650 to enable me to qualify, after a few months of searching, I bumped into a blog and found positive reviews about HACK VANISH CREDIT SPECIALIST, So I reached out to them to explain my credit situation, they requested my info and necessary details and were able to get every derogatory item on my report erased and increased my FICO score to 788 within 6 days, I was amazed. They are fast and reliable. Anyone looking for a credit solution below is their contact details:
