The bill S. 1072 proposes that members of the Jasper County Transportation Committee receive compensation for their attendance at meetings, specifically allowing each member to be paid one hundred dollars per meeting, while the chairman will receive one hundred fifty dollars per meeting. The bill stipulates that payments for attendance shall not exceed eighteen meetings in a single fiscal year, ensuring that the compensation is capped to maintain budgetary control.
Additionally, the bill outlines that payments will be made from Jasper County "C" fund revenues and will require the issuance of approved vouchers by the chairman of the committee. However, it is specified that the chairman cannot approve vouchers for more than eighteen meetings in any given fiscal year. This legislation is set to take effect upon receiving approval from the Governor.
