Currently, the positions of executive director of the elections board and
executive director of the ethics board are assigned to executive salary group 2

elections board and ethics board, respectively, at a point within this range upon
appointment. Any adjustment to the salary of an incumbent may be made only in
accordance with the compensation plan for executive salary group positions, as
approved by the joint committee on employment relations.
This bill reassigns the positions of executive director of the elections board and
executive director of the ethics board to executive salary group 4 ($55,398 to $84,545
in 1996-97). Under the bill, the elections board and ethics board may adjust the
salary of the incumbent in each of the affected positions, respectively,
notwithstanding any provision of the compensation plan to the contrary, within 90
days after the bill becomes law, subject to the approval of the secretary of
employment relations.
