AI Summary
This bill proposes changes to the laws governing the City of Greenbrier, specifically by increasing the monthly salary for aldermen, who are elected officials serving on the city's governing board, from $120 to $300, though this increase will not apply to current aldermen until their current term ends. Additionally, the bill will update how the city handles purchasing limits, moving away from specific dollar amounts set in the city's charter to procedures that align with state law, meaning the Board of Mayor and Aldermen will establish guidelines for how funds are disbursed, with all spending requiring their approval. Importantly, this act will only take effect if approved by a two-thirds vote of the City of Greenbrier's legislative body, and for current officials, their salary will not change until their elected term is complete.
