Title
APPROVE the proposed Measure M Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee Bylaws (Attachment A).
Issue
ISSUE
The Measure M Ordinance established an Oversight Committee to monitor and review
Metro's compliance with the terms of the Ordinance. Subsequently, Selection Panel Guidelines were developed to establish Committee procedures such as selection, compensation, resignation, etc. Those guidelines also state that the Committee may adopt bylaws that establish rules for rotation of Committee Officers. During its initial meeting in March of 2018, the Committee verbally agreed on a process and schedule for rotation of Officers. This action seeks to formalize the agreements and clarify certain Committee procedures that are stated generally in the Ordinance.
Discussion
DISCUSSION
During the June 2022 meeting, the Chair suggested that the Committee formalize rules for the establishment of committee officers and their rotation. Subsequently, staff drafted the bylaws and sought feedback from the Committee. Staff has incorporated comments received by the Committee to the initial draft as included in the attached proposed bylaws.

NEXT STEPS
Once approved, staff will ensure that the Bylaws are available on the Committee webpage on Metro.net.
