LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 2539, as amended, Strickland.
State boards and commissions: salaries: suspension.
Existing law provides for the payment of specified salaries to the members of various state boards and commissions. A member of a state board or commission may receive a per diem salary at a specified rate, except for a member whose salary is set pursuant to certain provisions of law.
This bill would prohibit a member of a state board or commission from receiving any salary if (1) in 2007 or later, the position of the member on the state board or commission received or would receive a salary totaling at least $100,000 per year, and (2) the members of the state board or commission are required, either by statute or regulation,
to meet 2 or less times per month, whichever is greater. This bill would authorize a member of a state board or commission who is prohibited from receiving a salary under these provisions to receive a specified per diem payment.
This bill would specify that members appointed to specified state boards and commissions shall receive no salary for the 2008–09, 2009–10, and 2010–11 fiscal years, except that they may receive a per diem payment set pursuant to these provisions during that time.
