the working of the roads of Louisa county, and to compensate them therefor.

[H B 119]
Approved March 24, 1930

1. Be it enacted by the general assembly of Virginia, That each
member of the board of supervisors of the county of Louisa, shall be
ex-officio foreman of roads for his district, should he elect to act as
such, and in case he does not so elect to act, he shall employ a suitable
foreman, competent to work the roads to the best advantage. Each
supervisor, should he elect to act as foreman, shall receive for his
services as such, compensation at the rate of fifty cents per hour for
the time actually engaged in supervising the working of the roads.
He shall keep an accurate itemized account of the time so employed,
and shall make a report thereof to the judge of the circuit court of
the county semi-annually for allowance, the correcting of which he
shall make affidavit to; provided, that no supervisor shall receive for
road services more than four hundred dollars in any one year; pro-
vided, further, however, that each supervisor who personally runs his
own road machine or tractor, in addition to acting as road foreman,
shall have the right to apply to the judge of the circuit court of the
county for an order allowing him such additional compensation as the
court may see fit for any additional time over and above eight hundred
hours made by such supervisor, during any one year, such additional
compensation to be allowed by the court is to be at the same rate per
hour, and not to exceed two hundred dollars. The compensation paid
to each supervisor under this act, shall be paid upon the warrant of
the board of supervisors drawn upon the treasurer of said county out
of his respective district road funds. Each semi-annual account and
report herein above required of such supervisor, shall be forthwith
posted by him at the front door of the courthouse of the county, and
at some conspicuous place at each voting precinct in his district.

2. An emergency existing, this act shall be in force from its
passage.
