Suffolk County legislators are amending parts of a highly contested bill that seeks to cap salaries of executives at nonprofit organizations in contract with the county.
The legislation, which has been in discussion since the end of July, would limit grant funding to nonprofits whose executives have salaries exceeding $250,000 — equivalent to the governor of New York. It would also require nonprofits to disclose to the county a list of all gifts and donations the nonprofits have received. Critics are calling it “ill-conceived” and “a solution looking for a problem.”
