Join OCTA for the Annual Measure M Public Hearing on April 11

To learn how Measure M sales tax money for transportation improvements gets put to work in Orange County, please join us as the Taxpayer Oversight Committee (TOC) presents the Measure M Annual Public Hearing on April 11.

One half-cent at a time, Measure M funds hundreds of local projects that improve travel for residents every day, like enhancements to almost every freeway in the county, street widening, signal synchronization, intersection improvements and funding Metrolink commuter rail service in Orange County.

The TOC is an independent, 11-member oversight committee that serves as a voter safeguard to monitor OCTA’s use of Measure M funding, approve all changes to the Measure M investment plan and hold an annual public hearing on the sales tax measure.

The hearing begins at 6 p.m. at OCTA headquarters. Committee members will report on recent activities and receive comments from the public on the implementation of Measure M during the last year.
