The bill proposes a new compensation structure for members of the Dallas County Board of Education. Specifically, it allows the board to pass a resolution enabling each member to receive a monthly compensation of one thousand dollars ($1,000), replacing any other compensation, salary, or expense allowance previously provided by law. This compensation will be paid in the same manner and from the same source as current payments for board members and will take effect on the first of the month following the passage of the resolution.
Additionally, the bill specifies that it will become effective on June 1, 2024. The legal language inserted into the current law includes the provision for the new compensation amount, while no deletions from existing law are noted in the text provided. The bill has passed both the House of Representatives and the Senate, with the Senate passing it on April 11, 2024.
