Removal of salary caps for WHEFA employees
Current law allows WHEFA to employ an executive director and limits the compensation of the executive director to the maximum of the salary range established for positions assigned to executive salary group 6. Current law also limits the compensation of each other employee of WHEFA to the maximum of the salary range established for positions assigned to executive salary group 3. This bill removes these limits on compensation of the executive director and employees of WHEFA.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:
Section 1. 231.02 (2) of the statutes is amended to read:
231.02 (2) The authority shall appoint an executive director and associate executive director who shall not be members of the authority and who shall serve at the pleasure of the authority. They shall receive such compensation as in an amount determined by the authority fixes, except that the compensation of the executive director shall not exceed the maximum of the salary range established under s. 20.923 (1) for positions assigned to executive salary group 6 and the compensation of each other employee of the authority shall not exceed the maximum of the salary range established under s. 20.923 (1) for positions assigned to executive salary group 3 . The executive director or associate executive director or other person designated by resolution of the authority shall keep a record of the proceedings of the authority and shall be custodian of all books, documents, and papers filed with the authority, the minute book or journal of the authority, and its official seal. The executive director or associate executive director or other person may cause copies to be made of all minutes and other records and documents of the authority and may give certificates under the official seal of the authority to the effect that such copies are true copies, and all persons dealing with the authority may rely upon such certificates.
