Trustees approve 5% statutory increase to board compensation
Summary
The board approved the maximum 5% permitted under the Education Code, raising the monthly board statement from $316.77 to $332.61. Trustees discussed statutory constraints and the inability to implement one‑time increases outside code limits.
Staff reported an annual review of board compensation under education code limits and presented a proposed 5% increase. The proposal would raise the current monthly payment of $316.77 by $15.84 to $332.61.
Trustees discussed earlier suggestions about one‑time adjustments for superintendents and confirmed that the Education Code limits the board to a percentage adjustment rather than ad hoc single increases. After a motion and second, the board voted unanimously to adopt the 5% increase.
