Subject: Appointment to the Measure K Oversight Committee
RECOMMENDATION:
title
Recommendation for the appointment term of Michael C. Kovalich, representing District 4, for a term ending June 30, 2019 to the Measure K Oversight Committee.
body
BACKGROUND:
The Measure K Oversight Committee was established following the voters’ approval of the Measure A sales tax in 2012 to conduct an annual audit of the Measure A sales tax funds to ensure transparency of the Board of Supervisors approved expenditures. The name of the oversight committee has thus been changed to reflect the passage of Measure K in 2016, which extended the sales tax until 2043.
DISCUSSION:
Pursuant to the Measure K Oversight Committee Bylaws, each committee member may serve two consecutive two-year terms. Michael Kovalich was appointed to the Measure K Oversight Committee on June 27, 2017 but the memo incorrectly listed his term expiration date as June 30, 2020. This recommendation reflects the appropriate term.
This appointment contributes to the 2025 Shared Vision statement of a Collaborative Community. Our diverse population works well together to build strong communities, effective government and a prosperous economy, civic engagement - including voting, public service, charitable giving, volunteerism, and participation in public discussions of important issues - is uniformly high among the diverse population of San Mateo County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
