What’s in it

This bill relates to the composition of a county compensation board by requiring that members of the board be appointed by a temporary compensation board appointing commission. Under the bill, each board of township trustees and each city council located in a county are required to appoint one of the members of their respective governing bodies to serve on the commission. The commission is required to appoint one member of the commission to serve on the county compensation board for each vacancy on the county compensation board.

Read the full explanation

Current law also prohibits an officer or employee of the state or a political subdivision of the state from serving on a county compensation board. The bill removes the prohibition on officers. The bill allows a member serving on a county compensation board on June 30, 2019, to continue serving until the expiration of that member’s term. The bill allows a county compensation board to continue performing its duties with six members through June 30, 2020, unless the membership of the county compensation board is staggered so that its membership reduces to five members on July 1, 2019.
