§ 74743 Board Member Compensation Limits

Key Takeaways

  • •Board members and committee members don't get paid a salary for their work.
  • •They can get up to $100 per day for each day they work, but only if they're not already a state worker.
  • •They can also get their travel costs paid back if they spend money to go to meetings or do special tasks for the commission.
  • •The $100 per day and travel money are only for days they actually work or travel for the commission.

Example

If someone is on a board and goes to a meeting in another city, they don't get a paycheck like a regular job.

But they can get $100 for that day and also get their gas or plane ticket money back if they spent it to get to the meeting.
