   1-10  board of Coryell County is composed of the county judge, the
   1-11  district judges in Coryell County, and the judge of the county
   1-12  court at law.>
   1-13        (b)  The board shall select one of its members to serve as
   1-14  chairman and chief administrative officer.  The chairman serves a
   1-15  one- or two-year term as determined by the board <The juvenile
   1-16  court judge is the chairman of the board and its chief
   1-17  administrative officer>.
   1-18        (c)  The commissioners court shall <may> pay the juvenile
   1-19  board members additional annual compensation set by the
   1-20  commissioners court at not less than the amount paid to a board
   1-21  member under this section on October 1, 1994 <more than $2,400 for
   1-22  the added duties imposed on the members>.  Compensation under this
   1-23  section must be the same amount for each board member <The
   1-24  commissioners court may not pay the judge of the county court at

    2-4        (d)  The board may apply for, accept, hold in trust, spend,
    2-5  and use a gift, grant, or donation of land, money, or other
    2-6  personal property from a government, corporate, personal, or other
    2-7  source to finance adequate and effective probation programs and
    2-8  services.
    2-9        (e)  Sections 152.0002, <152.0003,> 152.0004, <152.0005,>

   2-11  juvenile board of Coryell County.
   2-12        SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the
   2-13  crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
   2-14  emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
   2-15  constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
   2-16  days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
   2-17  and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
   2-18  passage, and it is so enacted.
