CPRD taking applications for pool renovation bond oversight committee

CPRD is taking applications for the Chehalem Aquatic Center Ballot Measure Citizens’ Advisory Committee. This bond oversight committee will monitor the activities and expenditures of CPRD as the renovation is completed, reviewing procedures and safeguards in order to ensure consistency with the requirements of Ballot Measure 36-170, which was passed on Nov. 14, 2014.

The Board will appoint three persons to this committee, one of whom will be a Certified Public Accountant, and another a member of the Oregon State Bar Association (preference will be given to a retired member of the Oregon Judiciary).

Applications can be downloaded at cprdnewberg.org or picked up at the administration office at 125 S. Elliott Road, or at registration desk, located inside the aquatic center at 1802 Haworth Ave.. Both are in Newberg.

The application deadline is 5 p.m. Friday, June 19th. The Board will appoint the committee members at its regular June 25th meeting.
