The Arcadia Unified Board unanimously approved appointment of Measure A citizen oversight committee members and heard that the 2017 parcel tax ($288 per parcel) brings in roughly $4.3 million per year.

The Arcadia Unified School District board unanimously appointed citizens to the Measure A parcel-tax oversight committee at its Aug. 27 meeting. Mr. Breslin summarized the parcel tax history: approved in 2017 at $288 per parcel and generating about $4.3 million annually.

"Parcel tax was approved in 2017. It's $288 per parcel. It brings in about $4,300,000 a year," Mr. Breslin told the board while explaining the oversight committee’s role. Board member Miss Vargo moved to approve the listed committee members; Miss Chavez seconded the motion and the board voted 5–0 in favor.

Board members and student representatives thanked committee members for their willingness to serve. The oversight committee will monitor how Measure A funds are spent and report to the community as required under the parcel tax and local oversight practices; staff said members may be retained consistent with state law that limits service durations.
