The Jordan board votes to:

• Increase its pay to $12,000 annually (from $3,000).

• Allow board members to take cash — about $17,000 a year — in lieu of health insurance.

• Tie its future pay increases to the Consumer Price Index.

Aug. 7

• After a firestorm of protest from residents and teachers, the board votes to reconsider the compensation package.

Aug. 21

• The board rescinds the decision to take cash in lieu of insurance and tying the salary to the Consumer Price Index to raise with inflation. What's left: the $9,000 raise and insurance coverage board members have had for years, if they want it.
