NORTH CAROLINA GENERAL ASSEMBLY

1975 SESSION

 

 

CHAPTER 196

HOUSE BILL 512

 

AN ACT RATIFYING PAST COMPENSATION PAID PRIOR TO OCTOBER 1, 1974, TO MEMBERS OF THE UNION COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION AND TO PROVIDE FOR THE COMPENSATION OF MEMBERS OF THE UNION COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.

 

Whereas, for a number of years members of the Union County Board of Education have been compensated in excess of the maximum authorized by statute; and

Whereas, this compensation paid to members of the Union County Board of Education was paid in good faith under the assumption that the board of education, with the approval of the Union County Board of Commissioners, could set the rate of compensation paid to members of the board of education; and

Whereas, it would be unjust and inequitable to require past and present members of the board of education who were compensated in excess of the statutory maximum to reimburse the county since the compensation was paid in good faith and with the approval of the board of county commissioners; Now, therefore,

 

The General Assembly of North Carolina enacts:

 

Section 1. All compensation paid to members of the Union County Board of Education for services rendered as a member of the board prior to October 1, 1974, is hereby ratified.

Sec. 2. Beginning October 1, 1974, and through and including July 1, 1975, the Chairman of the Union County Board of Education shall receive as compensation one hundred thirty-eight dollars and twelve cents ($138.12) per month; the remaining members of the board of education shall receive as compensation eighty dollars and four cents ($80.04) per month. Beginning July 1, 1975, the Union County Board of Commissioners shall fix the compensation for each member of the Union County Board of Education.

Sec. 3. This act shall become effective upon ratification.

In the General Assembly read three times and ratified, this the 2nd day of May, 1975.
