The SMC Board of Trustees has appointed four new members and reappointed another to the college’s Citizen's Bond Oversight Committee. The 10-member committee oversees the implementation of Measures U and S, the 2002 and 2004 bond measures that are funding capital improvement projects at the college.

Appointed to two-year terms were Belinda Phillips of Santa Monica’s Pico neighborhood and an SMC student. Phillips is a former SMC student trustee and current Associated Students Director of Financial Support; Sylvia Rose of Santa Monica, a volunteer tutor who has been an active supporter of SMC; Lorraine Sanchez of Santa Monica, a health care administrator and Sunset Park resident; and retired judge Ralph Erickson of Malibu. Reappointed to a two-year term was Clarence Chapman, a retired UCLA administrator.

The committee was established in spring 2002, as required by state law, to oversee the implementation of Measure U, the $160 million bond passed by 70 percent of Santa Monica-Malibu voters. The committee’s responsibility was expanded to include oversight of Measure S. The bond measures are funding a wide range of projects, including replacement buildings, seismic retrofitting and safety and technology upgrades. Shots for tots and teens
