Committee recommends keeping county supervisor per diem at $50 and mileage at 56¢; measure to go before full board
Summary
An administrative committee voted to recommend that the full Sawyer County Board retain the current supervisor per diem of $50 per meeting, with mileage reimbursement set at 56¢ per mile; the committee's recommendation will be considered by the full board.
The Sawyer County administrative committee voted to recommend that the full county board maintain the current supervisors’ compensation: a $50 per-meeting per diem and a mileage reimbursement of 56¢ per mile.
A motion to keep the per diem and mileage unchanged was made during the meeting and approved by voice vote. Committee members discussed how the 56¢ mileage rate is derived from 80% of the current IRS rate; one member noted the IRS rate of 79¢ and the committee applies 80% of that to arrive at 56¢. The county committee will forward the recommendation to the full county board, where a final vote will occur.
Key details: - Motion to recommend retaining $50 per meeting per diem and 56¢ per mile mileage reimbursement passed by voice vote in the administrative committee. - The committee noted a maximum per diem/day limit tied to travel time and a $110 daily cap when travel goes beyond four hours.
