The Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors is seeking applicants for appointment to the Measure X sales tax Community Advisory Board.

- Providing input on the scope and methodology of the regular written assessment of community needs and priorities;
- Using the assessment findings to develop general funding priorities to be recommended to the Board of Supervisors on Measure X net revenues available for allocation;
- Receiving annual status reports on the implementation, milestones, impact, and outcomes of Measure X funded programs;
