Citizens Oversight Committee
A Citizens Oversight Committee To Ensure Accountability
No one gets a blank check. The ballot measure specifically requires the city council to create a nine-member Citizens Oversight Committee responsible for examining the funds received from this measure, recommending a spending plan for these funds to the Folsom City Council, examining how those funds are spent, and submitting a report to the residents of the City of Folsom and the City Council each year.
The members of this Citizens Oversight Committee will include one representative each from the City finance department, the Police Department, the Fire Department, a representative from a recreational sports organization within the City of Folsom, a representative of a parks and trails organization within the City of Folsom, a representative focused on streets and environmental stormwater, a representative from a business community organization within the City of Folsom, and two (2) at-large members who are residents of the City of Folsom.
All meetings of this Citizens Oversight Committee, as well as its recommendations and annual reports will be open and available to the public.
