House Bill No. 364 amends Section 11.061(d) of the Education Code regarding the compensation of school district trustees. The bill allows trustees to serve without compensation unless a specific amount is approved by the district. It also stipulates that trustees' compensation cannot be paid from state or federal funds. Additionally, the bill outlines conditions under which a person may not receive compensation for serving as a trustee, specifically if they hold another civil office of emolument or receive compensation from the state for other services.

The bill aims to clarify the compensation structure for school district trustees while ensuring that public funds are not used for their payment. It emphasizes the need for district approval for any compensation and sets restrictions to prevent conflicts of interest related to other state-funded positions. The act will take effect immediately upon receiving a two-thirds vote from both houses or on September 1, 2025, if such a vote is not achieved.
