A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING A POLICY ON AIRLINE TRAVEL <br />WHEREAS, <br />The City infrequently has employees, elected or appointed officials <br />traveling on airlines at City expense; and <br />WHEREAS, <br />Many airlines do not offer corporate credit or benefit plans for <br />flying that allow individual travel to be grouped; and <br />WHEREAS, <br />The value of frequent flyer bonus miles is minimal to the City and is <br />determined by the City Council to have a value not in excess of <br />$20.00 for each round trip flight; <br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LITTLE <br />CANADA <br />That Council declares whenever the City pays for airline travel by an <br />elected or appointed official or City employee, such official or <br />employee shall advise the City Administrator within 90 days of the <br />receipt of any credit or benefit for flying on a ticket purchased at <br />City expense, and the City Administrator shall report to the City <br />Council on any such reports of credit or benefit; and <br />When an official or employee flies on an airline using a ticket <br />purchased by the City (including where the official or employee is <br />reimbursed by the City for such ticket), the official or employee <br />shall not be obligated to seek to obtain credit or benefit from the <br />airline on which the travel takes place and no report shall be <br />required if no such credit or benefit is sought for City paid airline <br />travel. In the event the official or employee does obtain credit or <br />benefit from the airline for flying, such official or employee shall <br />pay to the City the sum of $20.00 for each ticket purchased at City <br />expense. <br />Page 94 <br />
