Board accepts final Measure L audit, closes $56 million bond program with zero findings
Summary
Trustees approved the final financial and performance audit for Measure L (2016 $56 million general obligation bond), concluding a decade of projects and reporting zero audit findings; trustees credited staff stewardship and noted facilities built with bond funds.
The Lammersville Joint Unified School District board approved the final financial and performance audit for Measure L, closing out the 2016 $56,000,000 general obligation bond program. Superintendent Nicholas told the board the bond funded major projects — the theater, learning commons/library, CTE wing, tennis courts and aquatic center — and numerous smaller security and site improvements.
"This is the last and final formal act of the board on Measure L," Nicholas said, summarizing projects paid by bond proceeds and noting the audit reported zero findings. Trustees who served on the citizens bond oversight committee also reflected on the committee’s role in ensuring taxpayer dollars were spent as promised.
Trustees praised staff for stewardship and for leveraging state matching funds and other resources; one trustee described creative tactics used to qualify for match funding. The board moved and approved the final audit; the motion carried with five trustee ayes.
