Establishing a citizens oversight committee after preliminary voter approval June 6 of the $249 million Measure J school bond goes before Fairfield-Suisun School District trustees when they meet Thursday.

The committee will review bond spending, advise the public if the school district has met its obligations and issue an annual report on its findings, a staff report said.

At least seven members must be on the committee, including representatives of a local business organization, a senior citizens group, taxpayers association and a parent of a child in the school district.
