The citizensâ oversight committee for the Peralta Community College District Measure A facilities bonds, which has not issued required minutes or a report on its activities for the year and a half since the bond measure was passed, descended into something close to disarray this month with confusion over its membership. The remaining five committee members listed at that time were Bay Area World Trade Center President and CEO José Deans (business), Berkeley-Albany-Emeryville League of Women Voters Community College Chair Helene LeCar (community at-large), Laney College student Scott Folosade (students), Peralta Foundation President Bill Patterson (organization supporting the college district) and Polly Amrein (senior citizens). The long-standing Alameda County Taxpayers Association, with offices in downtown Oakland, has representatives on several local bond measure oversight committees, including the Alameda County Health Care Measure A Bond, the Alameda County Transportation Measure B Bond and the Chabot-Las Positas Measure B Bond. Meanwhile, if Smith and Ikharo are not considered by the district to be committee members, the filled membership and vacancies in the current district committee list only add up to six, one short of the seven specifically required in the 2006 bond measure. In March of 2004, two years before the passage of Peraltaâs Measure A, voters in Alameda County and a small portion of Contra Costa County passed the $498 million Chabot-Las Positas Community College District capital improvement (construction) bond to ârepair leaky roofs, worn wiring and plumbing; renovate aging, deteriorating classrooms and libraries; and repair, acquire, construct and equip college buildings, and computer labs at both Las Positas College in Livermore and Chabot College in Hayward. read more

SembCorp Marine may post an “unrealized loss” of $165 million at its Jurong Shipyard unit, and another $83 million that the unit paid to a bank before the unauthorized transaction was found, according to a statement Monday. Wee Sing Guan, a director in the finance department, was dismissed for making the transactions and misleading SembCorp Marine and Jurong Shipyard, according to the statement. SembCorp has appointed law firm Drew & Napier and the accountancy company Ernst & Young to investigate the unauthorized transactions with a committee of the SembCorp Marine board, according to the statement. SembCorp Industries said Monday that the financial impact from the losses incurred by Jurong Shipyard would be limited to the extent of SembCorp Industries' shareholding in SembCorp Marine. SembCorp Industries owned 61 percent of SembCorp Marine as of March. read more
