Meeting Dates

Purpose

The current Levy Oversight Committee (LOC) was established by Ordinance 123567 (Adobe PDF) to review and advise upon implementation plans, evaluation plans, the City of Seattle/Seattle School District Partnership Agreement, expenditures and allocations of proceeds, and to make recommendations on the implementation of particular programs.

The Committee developed proposals for a renewal of the Levy in 2011 via an expanded Levy Advisory Committee. Read the Committee's Recommendations for the 2011 Families and Education Levy Renewal here (PDF). View the materials they considered during their June 15 through December 14, 2010 meetings here.
