In November 2016, Santa Clara County voters approved Measure B, a 30-year, half-cent countywide sales tax devoted to enhancing transit, highways, expressways, and active transportation (bicycles, pedestrian, and complete streets) within Santa Clara County. Voters entrusted the 2016 Measure B Citizens-Oversight Committee (MBCOC) with oversight to ensure that Measure B funds are being spent consistent with the ballot language and to inform voters on Program compliance.

Examples of the many projects/programs underway include local streets/roads repair and improvements; highway interchanges; and bicycle/ pedestrian projects.

Audit Results

The MBCOC commissioned the annual independent audit of 2016 Measure B Program revenue and expenditures for Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 (July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2023). Moss Adams, LLP, completed this audit and presented its findings at the 3/27/24 MBCOC meeting, indicating its conclusion that VTA complied, in all material respects, with the requirements for the 2016 Measure B Program as defined in the ballot. Every annual audit of the 2016 Measure B Program since inception has received this same conclusion.

Audit reports and other information on 2016 Measure B are available on VTA’s website at vta.org/2016measureb and the VTA Headquarters at 3331 North First Street, San Jose, CA 95134, in the Building B Main Lobby weekdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m.
