What it does

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 elected county officers. Under current law, a county compensation board annually prepares a recommended compensation schedule for certain elected county officers for a succeeding fiscal year subject to adoption by the county board of supervisors. The bill requires the county board of supervisors to increase an elected county officer’s annual salary based on the consumer price index but not by more than percent each year.
