The Audit Results are In!

The Committee commissioned an audit of the Measure A Program financial records and schedule for FY 2022 (July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022). Crowe LLP, an independent certified public accounting firm, conducted the compliance audit and issued an unqualified (“clean”) opinion, indicating that VTA complied, in all material respects, with the requirements for the measure. This is the 17th consecutive audit receiving a clean opinion.

The Audit results are available on VTA’s website at www.vta.org/cwc-fy22audit and at the VTA Administrative Office at 3331 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95134 in the Building B Main Lobby. You can also access the CWC agenda packets here www.bit.ly/vta-cac-cwc-agendas.

Here's the Back Story!

In November 2000, Santa Clara County voters approved Measure A, a half-cent sales tax for specific public transit capital improvement projects and operations. Revenue collection began in April 2006. Highlights for FY 2022 include key activities for VTA’s BART Silicon Valley Extension project, Eastridge to BART Regional Connector project, and Caltrain Electrification efforts.
