Bill Caption
Relating to the compensation and per diem compensation of emergency
services commissioners in certain counties.
Fiscal Notes
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
Bill Analysis
Under current law, an emergency services commissioner is entitled to compensation of $50 per day and up to $3,000 per year. SB 517 would increase these compensation limits to a maximum of $150 per day and, in most districts, $7,200 per year.
Vote Recommendation Notes
SB 517 neither uplifts nor offends our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
