Discussion

The sales surtax Independent Citizens Oversight Committee (ICOC) Charter states that members shall serve terms of two (2) years and that a member may serve for more than one consecutive term for multiple terms if approved by the School Board.  The ICOC recommends member appointments for School Board consideration. The Charter states that the ICOC should have at least seven members and no more than eleven members. The ICOC currently has ten members.

The terms of Gary Shiffrin (Chair), Eugene Cavallucci (Vice Chair), Kayla Spellman (Treasurer), Brian Blenis and Mark Young expire on February 9, 2022. 

The ICOC has advertised for new members and reviewed one application, James Greene, at the October 20, 2021 meeting and recommended his appointment to the ICOC. 

Several members (Shiffrin, Cavalluccie, Blenis and Young) are intending to retire from the ICOC as they have served since the Committee started in February 2015. However, all are willing to continue service until new members can be appointed. Additional applications are expected to be reviewed by the ICOC at the December 2021 and February 2022 ICOC meetings.  The ICOC membership will transition over the next several months as new members are appointed by the School Board. However, until new members are appointed, the ICOC recommends the reappointment of Mr. Shiffrin, Mr. Cavallucci, Ms. Spellman, Mr. Blenis and Mr. Young. Ms. Spellman has indicated she intends to serve the full two year term.

The ICOC Chair will present the Annual Report to the School Board at the December 14, 2021 Board meeting. At that time, the Board may also recognize the service of the retiring members who have served since the ICOC's inception.
