Public Employee Compensation Amendments

HB 267 limits annual salary increases for school district administrators (including superintendents, business administrators, and deputies) to the weighted pupil unit (WPU) inflation rate, unless specific conditions are met. To exceed this cap, school boards must hold a public hearing, tie raises to measurable performance outcomes (like student literacy rates or graduation rates), and secure a majority vote. The bill also restricts certain benefits and sets new pay scales for deputy administrators and new superintendents. It directly affects school district leadership compensation decisions across Utah, with no new state funding required.
