RUSD board appoints Oz Huerta to Measure O citizens bond oversight committee
Summary
The board voted unanimously on July 24 to appoint Oswaldo "Oz" Huerta to the Citizens Bond Oversight Committee (Measure O). The committee monitors spending on Proposition 39 general obligation bond funds.
The Riverside Unified School District board voted July 24 to fill the final vacancy on the Measure O Citizens Bond Oversight Committee by appointing Oswaldo "Oz" Huerta.
Assistant Superintendent Williams told the board the committee—required under Proposition 39 rules—had advertised for applicants and had vetted candidates. Superintendent Yamas recommended Huerta, who attended a prior committee meeting to learn about the role, Williams said.
Trustee Dale Kinnear moved to adopt the staff recommendation; Trustee Doctor Tweed seconded. The motion carried 4‑0 with Trustee Hernandez‑Alexander absent.
Why this matters: the CBOC reviews expenditures of general‑obligation bond proceeds and reports to the public. Filling the committee seat restores the panel to full membership and allows it to continue oversight work.
What the board did: approved the appointment; Huerta is scheduled to begin attending CBOC meetings, with the next meeting in September.
Ending: board members thanked Huerta and encouraged public participation in oversight meetings.
