School Board Has Power to Fix County Superintendent Salary
Madison March 11 Attorney General Owen issued an opinion affirming county boards of education may be authorized to fix the salary of the county superintendent. He cited repeated holdings that salary fixing power can be delegated to a minor board of officers and ruled that double taxation in a city and adjacent town district does not render the law unconstitutional. He also addressed library funding referendums, noting a city library referendum is valid when the method is properly provided, even if related statute was previously deemed unconstitutional.
