APPLICATION FOR CITIZENS’ BOND OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE
The Board of Trustees of the Santa Barbara Community College District is seeking qualified, interested individuals to serve on the independent Citizens’ Bond Oversight Committee (“CBOC”) of the Measure V Bond program.
Proposition 39 Bond Election
On June 3, 2008, voters residing within the Santa Barbara Community College District

to the schools within the Santa Barbara Community College District.

Oversight Committee. The committee was appointed in November 2008.
