What’s in it
AI summary When a county assessor leaves their job unexpectedly, a group called a conference board picks someone to fill the empty spot. This bill lets that group decide on a fair salary for the new person, even if the pay is different from what was originally planned in the yearly budget.1
Read the official explanation
In the event of the removal, resignation, death, or removal from the county of an assessor, the conference board with jurisdiction over the assessor’s position must fill the vacancy by appointing an assessor to serve the previous assessor’s unexpired term. Each year, the salary for the person holding the position of assessor is set in a budget approved by the conference board. This bill allows the conference board to establish a salary for an assessor that has been appointed to fill a vacancy in an amount the conference board determines to be reasonable, even if the amount is different from the salary approved in the conference board’s approved budget.
