Notes Per Michael Bear:
I’m not comfortable approving the waiving pay as equivalent to unpaid. I think R.C. 121.221(A)(5)(a)(iv) applies even if the members forgo the pay.
(5)(a) No public body may hold, and no member of a public body may attend, meetings or conduct and attend hearings by means of video conference or other similar electronic technology if any of the following apply:(iv) Excluding expense reimbursements for actual expenses incurred while fulfilling their duties, the members of the public body are compensated for their position as members of the public body.
I would also note that the statute would have required you to define “major non-routine expenditure” as part of the policy.
