  and qualified voters appointed to act in place of an  absent  inspector,
  clerk  or  coordinator  shall  be paid for their services on the days of
  registration  and  election,  by  the  county  containing  the  election
  district  in  which  they  serve,  in  an  amount  fixed  by  the county
  legislative body, subject to such limitations as shall be prescribed  or
  authorized by statute, except that in the city of New York the amount of
  such  compensation  shall  be payable by such city and shall be fixed by
  the mayor at a daily rate which, in  the  case  of  election  inspectors
  shall  not  be  less  than one hundred thirty dollars and in the case of
  election  coordinators  not  less  than  two   hundred   dollars.   Such
  inspectors, poll clerks, election coordinators and qualified voters at a

  session shall be paid not less than twenty-five dollars for each meeting
  plus, at the option of the county, transportation expenses not to exceed
  the mileage allowance approved by the county legislative body for  their
  permanent employees, payable by the county or in the case of the city of
  New  York,  by  such  city. For administrative purposes, each county may
  establish one or more categories for the mileage allowance, based on the
  range of distance traveled, and  pay  the  mileage  allowance  for  that
  category.
    3.  The  chairman of the board of inspectors of each election district
  shall, within  twenty-four  hours  of  any  election  or  day  of  local

  actual service of each member of such board, the names of  the  persons,
  if  any,  who  served  as  clerks on an election day, the hours of their
  service, and the days on which the store, building  or  room  hired  for
  registration and election purposes was actually used for such purposes.
    4.  If  a  person recommended and examined for appointment as election
  officer in a city, or examined therefor without  recommendation  in  the
  absence  of a party list, be found disqualified and be not appointed, as
  therein provided, and such person shall serve in the same calendar  year
  as  inspector  at a registration or election or as clerk at an election,
  under a vacancy appointment, he shall receive no compensation  for  such
  services.
