The former TransLink board of 12 elected mayors and councillors collected a total of $126,000 for overseeing the transportation authority last year before a rich new pay package was created for their successors.
TransLink financial statements show Richmond Mayor Malcolm Brodie, then the chair of TransLink, received the most: $43,524.
Surrey Coun. Marvin Hunt, the vice-chair, got $12,750 and all other directors received less than $9,000 each, based on fees of $200 per meeting.
Pay for the new appointed TransLink board is expected to be about four times higher, close to $500,000 a year.
Board chair Dale Parker gets a flat $100,000 per year, while the eight other directors get $25,000 plus meeting fees of $1,200 per meeting.
