PTOC is composed of five to seven (5-7) members who are approved by the District Board of Trustees, including:

A.      One member shall, at the time of appointment, be active in a business organization representing the business community of the District;

B.      One member shall, at the time of appointment, be a member of the community at large;

The Parcel Tax Oversight Committee (PTOC) is charged with overseeing expenditures funded by voter-approved parcel taxes and ensuring that such funds are spent in the manner intended by each ballot measure. To that end, the PTOC prepares an annual report regarding the expenditure of parcel tax funds supporting District programs and services.  The report is presented to the Board and is made available to local media and the public.
