AI Summary

This bill increases the maximum monthly compensation that community college governing board members can receive for attending all their meetings, with the exact amount varying based on the number of full-time equivalent students (FTES) in their district. FTES refers to the number of students enrolled in full-time equivalent courses. For example, in districts with over 60,000 FTES, the maximum monthly compensation would rise from $1,500 to $4,500, and in smaller districts with 1,000 or fewer FTES, it would increase from $120 to $600. The bill also allows for pro-rata compensation for members who miss meetings and permits boards to approve compensation for missed meetings under specific circumstances like illness or performing official district duties, with a provision for an annual 5% increase that can be overturned by a voter referendum.
