LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 536, Wilson.
Bay Area Air Quality Management Advisory Council: compensation.
Existing law establishes the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, which is vested with the authority to regulate air emissions located in the boundaries of the Counties of Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, and Santa Clara and portions of the Counties of Solano and Sonoma. Existing law establishes a district board (bay district board) to govern the district. Existing law also establishes the Bay Area Air Quality Management Advisory Council, which is appointed by the bay district board, to advise and consult with the bay district board and the bay district air pollution control officer, as provided. Existing law requires council members to serve without compensation, but authorizes actual expenses incurred in the discharge of their duties.
This bill would repeal the compensation prohibition and would instead
authorize each council member to receive actual and necessary expenses incurred in the discharge of their duties. The bill would also authorize each council member to receive compensation, to be determined by the bay district board for either attending a meeting of the council or attending a meeting, upon authorization of the bay district board, as a representative of the council.
