| BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS: | ||
| SECTION 1. Section 11.201, Education Code, is amended by | ||
| adding Subsection (b-1) to read as follows: | ||
| (b-1) A school district may not employ a superintendent for | ||
| an annual salary in an amount that is greater than 125 percent of | ||
| the amount of the annual salary authorized by the legislature for | ||
| the governor. For purposes of this subsection, a superintendent's | ||
| annual salary does not include an amount paid by the district as: | ||
| (1) a bonus; or | ||
| (2) an allowance or stipend. | ||
| SECTION 2. This Act applies to an employment contract that | ||
| is entered into on or after September 1, 2019. An employment | ||
| contract that is entered into before September 1, 2019, is governed | ||
| by the law as it existed at the time the contract was entered into, | ||
| and the former law remains in effect for that purpose. | ||
| SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2019. | ||
