The Sonoma County Civil Grand Jury is an independent institution with the principal function of overseeing all aspects of county, special districts and city governments in Sonoma County to ensure that the best interests of its residents are being served. The 19 Grand Jury members are selected annually from applications submitted by County residents to serve a one-year term.
Why become a civil grand juror? The ability to act as a community watchdog overseeing fiscal responsibility, efficiency, and honesty provides a public forum for accountability by departments, agencies, and elected officials. The privilege of serving on the grand jury provides the opportunity for a county resident to learn more about the administration and operation of the government in Sonoma County.
Applications close on May 2.
