Bill > SB1320

This bill amends the Airport Authorities Act to modify the compensation limits for airport authority commissioners. Specifically, for airport authorities with a population of 500,000 or fewer, the monthly compensation for commissioners is increased from $150 to $300 for services performed within the authority's corporate limits or within 50 miles of those limits. For airport authorities with a population over 500,000, the annual compensation for commissioners is raised from $10,000 to $25,000. The bill appears to be designed to provide more competitive compensation for airport authority commissioners, potentially making these positions more attractive to qualified candidates and recognizing the time and effort required to serve in these roles. The changes apply to the board of commissioners' compensation structure, allowing for higher payment rates that presumably reflect the increased complexity and responsibilities of managing airport authorities in different-sized jurisdictions.
