§ 62541 Board Member Compensation Rules

Key Takeaways

  • •Board members get paid $100 for each day they work.
  • •They also get money back for travel, hotel, and food when they go to meetings or do board work.
  • •They have to ask the secretary to approve their pay and expenses.

Example

If a board member goes to a meeting for 2 days and spends $50 on gas and $80 on a hotel, they get paid.

They get $100 for each day (so $200 total) plus the $50 for gas and $80 for the hotel. But they need the secretary to say it's okay first.
