RDCO Board Highlights

Castanet:
Regional Board Remuneration Review
- The Regional Board has adopted recommendations presented from a public three member committee tasked with reviewing remuneration of the Regional Directors. David Rush, Fran Macdonnell and Len Novakowski suggested that in light of the changes and reduction in duties and meetings that have taken place since the incorporation of the Westside District Municipality some minor adjustments should be made to the bylaw and the policy governing remuneration and expenses for Regional Board members. Effective January 1st, 2009, the $40,000 annual remuneration paid to the Board Chair will be reduced by 10%. While the base remuneration paid to appointed Municipal Directors and elected Area Directors will not change, they will no longer receive a per diem paid for attending the monthly Governance and Services Committee meeting.
