Are there accountability measures?

Answer

Yes. Measure H includes strong, legally required taxpayer protections to ensure funds are used responsibly and as promised:

  • All funds stay local to support Lafayette students and cannot be taken by the State.
  • No funds may be used for administrators’ salaries.
  • Independent oversight and mandatory annual audits ensure transparency and proper spending.
  • Measure H lasts 9 years and cannot be extended without voter approval.

These safeguards are designed to provide transparency, local control, and clear limits on how the funding is used.
