DRAINAGE COMMISSIONER PAY

Introduced·2/6/26
Introduced Text

SB3957 amends the Illinois Drainage Code to change how drainage commissioners are compensated.

SB3957 amends the Illinois Drainage Code to change the compensation method for drainage commissioners. Instead of receiving a daily payment for each day they are engaged in office business, commissioners can now receive a fixed monthly payment set by the county board. This fixed monthly payment cannot exceed $30 multiplied by the number of business days in the month. The bill also specifies that these changes apply only to commissioners who begin their terms after the effective date of the act.
