Introduced by: James H. Dillard II | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

School board salaries. Eliminates the school board member salary limits specified for each school division, and provides instead that salaries for school board members representing counties, cities, and towns must be consistent with salary procedures and limits set by statute or by charter for the relevant local governing body. The salary limits for members of the consolidated school divisions of Williamsburg/James City County, Greensville County/Emporia, and Alleghany County/Clifton Forge must be consistent with the salary limits established for the relevant county. Title 15.2 sets specific salary caps for city councils and boards of supervisors by population brackets; town councils may set their own salary levels. This bill also provides that the annual amount a school board, whether elected or appointed, may pay its chairman will be increased from $1,100 to $2,000 and retains the restriction that no school board can be awarded a salary increase, unless a specific salary increase isapproved by affirmative vote of that school board. The bill has a delayed effective date of July 1, 2001.
