The village president's salary shall remain at $23,400.00 after April 30, 2021 unless changed by the board of trustees. In addition to the annual salary set forth immediately above, the village president shall receive $25.00 in additional compensation per committee meeting attended for those committees designated on the agenda for the village as well as for attending any and all recreational board meetings and planning and zoning commission meetings.

(b)

In addition to the annual compensation referred to in subsection (a) of this section, the village president shall be reimbursed $25.00 per meeting attended for all committee meetings for those committees designated on the agenda for the village as well as for attending any and all recreational board meetings, zoning board of appeals meetings, and planning commission meetings. In no event is this section to be construed as providing for reimbursement to the village president for attending liquor commission hearings unless set forth in separate and independent ordinance. The $25.00 per meeting reimbursement for expenses is a reimbursement for unverified expenses. If the president can substantiate, on an annual basis, that he has incurred actual expenses exceeding $25.00 per meeting attended by the president during any fiscal year, the president shall then receive additional reimbursement for those expenses.

The $25.00 per meeting reimbursement to the president of the board of trustees shall be payable on a biweekly basis.
