TransNet Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee
The TransNet Independent Taxpayer Oversight Committee (ITOC) is a group of community members appointed by SANDAG to provide an enhanced level of accountability for expenditures of TransNet funds, as outlined in the TransNet Ordinance and Expenditure Plan. The committee helps ensure that all voter mandates are carried out as required and develops recommendations for improvements to the financial integrity and performance of the program. Every year, ITOC releases an annual report of the Committee’s milestones and accomplishments.
SANDAG invites the public to share your thoughts and ideas with ITOC, so that we can continue to maintain an open dialogue for the future of San Diego region’s transportation system. Please provide feedback on our comment form.
The ITOC meetings are generally the second Wednesday of every month.
