A Los Angeles Community port canaveral cruise ships transportation College District proposal to lower the car allowances given to campus presidents and other executives — but use the money to boost salaries — has come under fire at a time when many students are unable to get classes because port canaveral cruise ships transportation of budget cuts.
Senior executives receive a $1,530 monthly allowance, the highest of any district in the state. Under a plan to be considered by the Board of Trustees on Wednesday, that amount would be reduced to $500 a month, effective July 1.
The difference of $1,030 would be shifted to increase the salary schedules of nine campus presidents and six district administrators. New salaries for presidents would range from $175,652 to $204,092, port canaveral cruise ships transportation compared with the current $163,292 to $191,732.
Chancellor Daniel LaVista and Board President Steve Veres said that the action would not result in a net increase or decrease to compensation, and that the adjustments were fair because community college presidential salaries in Los Angeles lag behind those in other districts.
