The Foothill-De Anza Community College District is looking for applicants to fill four positions on its Measure C oversight committee. The seven-member committee helps to monitor the spending of Measure C, a $490.8 million general obligation bond passed by voters in 2006.

At the end of 2009, four current committee members' terms will expire and none are eligible to reapply.

Representatives are volunteers, and are assigned to represent specific constituencies within the district. The positions opening up represent: taxpayers association, business organization, Foothill-De Anza auxiliary organization representatives, and at-large.

The oversight committee is responsible for reviewing Measure C expenditures and reporting to the public and the board of trustees annually. Positions on the committee last for two years, and representatives meet no more than once per quarter.

Those wishing to apply must submit a resume and cover letter indicating the category they wish to represent by 5 p.m. on Nov. 9. Applications may be e-mailed to chancellor@fhda.edu or sent by mail to the Office of the Chancellor, Foothill-De Anza Community College District, 12345 El Monte Road, Los Altos Hills. New representatives will be appointed at a regularly scheduled meeting on Monday, Dec. 7.
