CABOC Purpose: The specific purpose of this corporation is to provide training, assistance, and encouragement to California School Proposition 39 Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee Members through development of training materials, delivery of online training, conferences, workshops, formation of regional groups of California Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committees and representing common interest at the statewide level. 

School Proposition 39: Proposition 39 requires school districts that pass Proposition 39 bonds to seat a Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC) to assure the community that bond funds are expended in the fashion outlined in the district’s bond resolution. The CBOC must meet at least once a year and inform the public about the expenditure of bond revenues. The CBOC shall actively review and report on the proper expenditure of taxpayers’ money for school construction.

Guiding Statement: The Little Hoover Commission is a bipartisan independent California oversight agency to promote economy and efficiency in state and local government. “The Commission fulfills this charge by listening to the public, consulting with the experts and conferring with the wise. In the course of its investigations, the Commission typically impanels advisory committee, conducts public hearing and visits government operations in action.” The Little Hoover Commission in their Report #236, February 2017 made recommendations in regards School Proposition 39 bonds to the Governor and the Legislature for their consideration. These recommendations will guide the focus and work of CABOC.
