An annual conference may adopt a Shared Salary Option Plan for compensating active itinerant clergy under appointment. The plan shall be put into effect after it has been ratified by at least 2/3 of the charge conferences within the annual conference. The plan may include allowances for differences in the years of service, educational levels, number of dependents, or other variables such as actual differences in living costs as determined by the annual conference. The conference Council of Finance and Administration shall administer the Shared Salary Option Plan and shall be responsible for collecting and disbursing the funds. The Shared Salary Option Plan may be terminated by a 2/3 vote of the charge conferences within the annual conference.
