The Menlo Park City School District has established a Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC), pursuant to the California Constitution, to inform the public concerning the expenditure of bond revenues, actively review and report on proper expenditure of taxpayers’ money for school construction, and advise the public re: whether the district has met Constitutional requirements. 

The CBOC is not an advisory committee to the construction program, rather it has an audit role and reports to the public. CBOC meetings are subject to the Brown Act. The district works with bond counsel to ensure all requirements are met. The CBOC will:

• Ensure bond revenues are expended only for construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, or replacement of school facilities (Article XIIIA, Section 1(b)(3) of the California Constitution)
• Ensure no funds are used for any teacher and administrative salaries or other school operating expenses (Article XIIIA, Section 1(b)(3)(A) of the California Constitution)
• Meet at twice a year. School year 2025-26 meetings will be September 25, 2025 and April 30, 2026

Measure U is the fourth bond program in a history of general education bonds that have been passed by the MPCSD community since 1995 to modernize, improve, and rebuild the district's facilities. The district's bond programs have historically been completed on time and on budget. Bond programs allow the district's physical spaces to to mirror the excellence already demonstrated by our students and staff. MPCSD also has a history of bond refunding over the course of its bond programs to save the MPCSD taxpayers millions of dollars.
