CITY OF IONA TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT POLICY
The City of Iona (City) believes it prudent to adopt a general policy regarding the disbursement and/or
reimbursement of funds for travel expenses related to City business. The following guidelines will be employed
when making disbursements and/or reimbursements to City personnel.
ZAP,
NOW, THEREFORE, be it hereby resolved:
1. The goal of all City personnel should be to minimize expenses.
2. Travel expenses are for out of town (i.e., Idaho Falls) and not for day to day activities.
3. If personal vehicle is used for travel, reimbursement for personal vehicle use will be at the currently
rn accepted governmentmileage rate. With the approval of the Mayor and/or City Council, a rental car
can be used as an option to personal vehicle use if it is found to be less expensive than direct mileage
reimbursement.
4. Airfare will be reimbursed at actual cost.
5. Lodging for approved out of town conferences, training, or meetings will be reimbursed at the rate
charged. When possible, reasonable efforts should be made to find economical lodging facilities.
Ask for government rate.
6. Reimbursements for breakfast, lunch, and dinner will be paid for separately at the current Per Diem
Rates for Idaho listed on the State of Idaho Government website at the time of travel.
7. Approved incidentals will be reimbursed at direct cost (e.g., parking).
8. This resolution shall become effective on the date it is passed and executed by the Mayor.
PASSED and APPROVED by the Mayor and City Council
