The Oakland Unified School District’s Measure B, Measure J, and Measure Y Independent Citizen Bond Oversight Committee (CBOC) is a state-mandated committee of local residents that oversees the approximately $735 million in school facilities bonds approved by voters. They are committed to maximizing the efficient and equitable use of these monies for Oakland public schools.

 

This bond money is used on constructing, renovating, and repairing school and district buildings, including things like building new facilities, creating new fields, upgrading science labs, building new Early Childhood Centers and student health centers, improving safety and security, repairing and constructing new bathrooms, improving energy efficiency, and making seismic upgrades.
