What’s in it

AI summary Instead of using a separate compensation board, county supervisors will now be responsible for creating and reviewing pay schedules for certain county officers. This change moves the task of deciding how much these officials get paid directly to the county's board of supervisors.1

Read the official explanation

This bill eliminates county compensation boards. The bill grants county boards of supervisors the responsibility of annually preparing and reviewing the compensation schedule for certain county officers. Under current law, a county compensation board annually prepares a recommended compensation schedule for certain county officials for a succeeding fiscal year subject to adoption by the county board of supervisors.
