Hello Adam,
a council member is adamant in a request that they be reimbursed mileage accrued performing city functions,city
council meetings,workshops ect.
From what I understand we have no firm policy in place for addressing this matter.
I propose the council offers one.
With that,having thought the matter through,with feedback from both other cities and a previous elected official,I
request that you pen an ordinance that offers reimbursement under the following conditions:
1)if the occasion involves recognized elected official training,specific information gathering related to city
functions,responding to city residents for related city functions,affiliated and recognized city business
2)the occasion must be beyond the borders of Washington County.
I believe staff has requirements related to more internal controls,IE paperwork,if so please provide the necessary
Items needed to facilitate the process.
I believe the consent agenda would be appropriate but wherever you think it should be located is fine.
Let's refine this week please.
Thank you.
Mike
