Waza COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT ITEM NUMBED; /
FROM: William C. Statler, Director of Finance
SUBJECT: UPDATED TRAVEL GUIDELINES
CAO RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution updating the City's travel guidelines.
DISCUSSION
The City's travel guidelines have not been comprehensively reviewed since June of 1984.
In the interim nine year period, several administrative updates have been made to reflect
changes in IRS rules, respond to requirements of the Fair Labor Standards Act, and to
reduce costs. (The 1984 travel guidelines along with interim revisions are provided in
Section 300 of the Financial Management Manual).
The purpose of the proposed update is to comprehensively incorporate these changes into
one integrated document and to streamline and improve form preparation and reporting
procedures. Additionally, this update reflects the following recommended policy changes
based on current practices and fiscal circumstances, and the nine years that have passed
since these guidelines were last reviewed on a comprehensive basis:
■ Seminars, meetings, and conferences that require overnight accommodations should
only be attended when the training is mandatory, reimbursable, or otherwise
necessary to accomplish key City goals and objectives and is unavailable locally.
■ The previous limitation of 25% of the cost for meals that may be allocated for
beverages is eliminated.
■ All airfare travel on City business should be coach class.
■ The previous limitation of $20 for taxis is eliminated.
■ Spouses and guests are allowed to accompany employees on City travel and at
conferences, seminars, and meetings. However, any additional costs associated with
participation by spouses and guests are the responsibility of the employee.
■ City funds should not be used to purchase alcohol or reimburse employees for
alcohol related costs.

A- COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
■ All expenses must be itemized and reported after travel. Accordingly, the $13
portion of the current per diem amount for miscellaneous expenses is eliminated.
However, to account for the nine years that have passed since the current daily per
diem amount of $44.00 was established, it is recommended that this amount be
retained as the per diem allowance for meals.
■ The Travel Authorization/Expense Report form and procedures have been revised.
As noted earlier, some of the items listed above are already standard City practice (e.g. the
alcohol policy); the modification to the travel guidelines to add specific policies will
formalize these practices).
FISCAL IMPACT
There are no fiscal impacts associated with the proposed update.
SUMMARY
In order to comprehensively incorporate all of the City's travel policies into one document,
improve administrative procedures, and reflect policy changes that should be made since the
City's travel guidelines were last reviewed on a comprehensive basis, it is recommended that
the Council adopt the attached resolution updating the City's travel guidelines.

Section 301
TRAVEL GUIDELINES
OVERVIEW
These guidelines establish the basic policies and procedures for travel on City business by
all employees and officials. Everyone who travels on City business - or supervises someone
who travels - is responsible for knowing and following these guidelines.
These guidelines are organized into seven sections: '
■ General standards
■ Planning an official trip
■ Submitting travel authorizations and cash advance requests
■ Making the trip
■ Incurring non-travel expenses
■ Accounting for expenses
■ Completing travel authorizations/expense reports
The key document in the administrative process is the Travel Authorization/Expense Report
(TA). Besides ensuring that travel by City employees and officials'.is conducted in
accordance with adopted policies, the TA summarizes the total cost of attending
conferences, meetings, and seminars and provides documentation for cash advances and
vendor payments. General instructions for completing and processing this form are also
included in these guidelines.
GENERAL STANDARDS
These guidelines do not require you to take a bus, stay in a cheap motel, or eat only in fast
food restaurants. A bus or a train may cost less than a plane, but the added time away from
work can make these slower options more expensive to the City overall. The meal
allowances established in these guidelines allow you to eat in moderately priced restaurants.
In all areas, not just economy, you are responsible for exercising good judgment in
requesting, arranging, and making a trip. It should be thoroughly planned, well in advance.
Personal business should not be mixed with official business if it will cost the City anything
in dollars or lost time, or if it will harm the City's interests in any way.
These guidelines are not intended to address every issue, exception, or contingency that may
arise in the course of City travel. Accordingly, the basic standard that should always prevail
is to exercise good judgment in the use and stewardship of the City's resources.
PLANNING AN OFFICIAL TRIP
How will you travel?
When planning the transportation portion of your trip, consider all aspects of cost to the
City - daily expenses, overtime, lost work time - as well as actual transportation costs. In
301-1
general, common carrier (bus, train, plane) is the preferred mode of transportation. You
should use an intercity bus, train or airplane unless there is a valid reason for using private
_ transportation. For example, use of a City vehicle - especially if two or more employees or
officials are traveling together- may be less expensive for travel within the State. However,
as noted above, the increased time for automobile transportation- and the potential for lost
work time, overtime, or increased lodging costs - should be considered in determining the
best mode of transportation.
All air travel on City business should be coach class.
If you will be driving, you should use a City vehicle if one is available. You may request
a City credit card to purchase gasoline (available from Administration) or request
reimbursement when you return. If a City vehicle is not available, or there is another
reason why you should drive your personal car, you may do so with the approval of your
department head. You will be reimbursed at the currently approved per mile rate (see
Section 350 of the Financial Management Manual).
The following intercity mileages provided by the Automobile Club of Southern California
may be used:
■ Anaheim 227 ■ Sacramento 286
■ Bakersfield 137 ■ San Diego 324
■ Fresno 138 ■ San Francisco 231
■ Los Angeles 201 ■ San Jose 188
■ Monterey 148. ■ Santa Barbara 108
■ Oakland 228 ■ Santa Maria 30
To drive a privately owned vehicle on City business you must:
■ Possess a valid California driver's license.
■ Carry liability insurance limits required by the City's Risk Management Manual.
■ Realize that any damage to the car, needed service, or repair occurring on the trip
will be your responsibility, as these costs are included in the City's per mile cost
reimbursement.
If you need local transportation at your destination, use of public transit such as buses,
streetcars and subways is appropriate. You will be reimbursed for these expenses. You will
be reimbursed for taxis when public transit or other common carriers are not reasonably
available. If a car rental is required, you may use a City credit card or request
reimbursement when you return (see Section 303 of the Financial Management Manual
regarding guidelines and procedures for using City credit cards).
When will you go? By what route?
You should schedule your trip so that you leave at the latest reasonable hour and still arrive
at your destination on time. You should also return promptly when your business is
301-2
4'- 14.r
finished, thereby minimizing the time away from work and ensuring full reimbursement of
all related expenses.
You should generally take the most direct and commonly traveled routes. Other routes may
be authorized when official business requires their use. If you take an indirect route or stop
along the way for personal reasons, you will not be reimbursed for related expenses.
What about compensation for travel time?
When travel time exceeds your normal work week, the City's rules for overtime apply if you
are eligible for overtime. In determining overtime compensation, normal commute time
should be deducted from the total travel time. Additionally, normal unpaid meal periods
are not considered work time when you are traveling. Overtime eligibility applies equally .
to drivers and passengers, and should be granted whether the travel occurs during normal
workdays or on weekends or evenings.
Where will you stay?
The City will pay for a single room (including taxes and parking) for as many nights as
necessary. The accommodations you use should be economical but practical. For example,
it is preferable to stay at the hotel where a conference is held, even if that hotel may be
slightly more expensive than others in the area. Location is also important: a hotel close
to where you will be conducting business may be slightly more expensive than outlying
hotels, but it may be easier to achieve the City's travel goals by staying at the closer
location. In general, you should stay at the most reasonably priced accommodations
available consistent with the purpose and goals of your travel. If you have a question about
using a particular hotel, obtain concurrence or direction from your department head before
making a reservation.
Should you make reservations?
Whenever possible, you should make reservations. They are often required for large
conferences. If a credit card number is needed to hold a reservation, you can use the City
credit card number, but no payments or purchases should be made with the card without
prior arrangements with Finance. Be sure to cancel any reservations you will not use. If
the City is charged for an unused reservation, you will pay that charge unless circumstances
requiring cancellation were reasonably beyond your control.
When making lodging reservations,be sure to ask about exemptions from the local transient
occupancy tax (TOT): some cities exempt travelers on City business, others don't. If there
is an exemption, you can save up to 12% on lodging costs depending on the local TOT rate.
Almost all lodging operators will require an official, written claim for exemption, and a
sample for this purpose is provided in Exhibit A.
SUBMITTING TRAVEL AUTHORIZATIONS AND CASH ADVANCE REQUESTS
TA's are required whenever the total estimated cost will exceed $200 or overnight
accommodations will be required. Otherwise, the voucher system may be used to request
vendor payments or employee expense reimbursements. Department head approval of TA's
301-3
C- /�'�
is required, and out-of-sme travel requires the further approval ui the CAO. The first page
of the completed TA and accompanying voucher requests should be submitted to your
department head as far in advance as possible. The reverse side of the TA will be used
when you return to account for your reimbursable expenses.
Department heads approving TA's are responsible for determining that the cost is
reasonable and justified by the trip's purpose. They should be certain that:
■ The purpose cannot be accomplished by mail or telephone.
■ The seminar, meeting, or conference is mandatory, reimbursable, or otherwise
necessary to accomplish key City goals and objectives and is unavailable locally if
overnight accommodations are required.
■ The minimum number of City staff members are going.
■ The itinerary ensures accomplishment of the purpose at the lowest reasonable cost.
■ The traveler understands and follows these guidelines.
■ There is enough money in the appropriate travel budget to cover7the costs.
Requests for cash in advance and payments to vendors
The City will pay all legitimate expenses of your trip. These include transportation, lodging,
registration fees, meals, and any other related expenses if they are for official business and
fit within these guidelines.
There are two ways to pay for travel expenses: "direct vendor payment" and "cash advance".
Direct vendor payments are made by the City to an organization to pay for specific costs
related to a trip - usually registration fees, lodging, and airfare. Cash advances are lump
sum payments made to you before you leave to cover expenses as they arise on the trip.
If you request a cash advance, your department head must review the amount to be sure it
is reasonable. When you return,you must account for all expenses you incurred, and return
the unused portion of the advance. You will be reimbursed the difference if the actual,
authorized expenses you incurred exceed the amount advanced.
To obtain either direct vendor payments or a cash advance, you must complete the
appropriate sections of the TA and attach payment vouchers for all payments (including
cash advances). You should retain a copy of the completed TA (both sides) because you
will need it when you return to reconcile and account for your reimbursable expenses.
MAKING THE TRIP
There are two key "golden rules" to remember about making an official trip:
■ Keep it official.
■ Keep records for all expenses.
301-4
C-11- 7
Keeping it official
If you take time away from official business for personal matters, or if you delay your return
after completing your business,you will not be reimbursed for expenses incurred during that
time. When combining business and personal travel in this manner, department head
approval is required. If this extended period occurs during your regular scheduled work
hours, the time will be counted as vacation, comp time (if available), or leave without pay.
If you become sick and must delay your return, you will be reimbursed for your additional
living expenses (except those directly related to your illness, such as physician or hospital
costs) until you are able to return home. You should notify your supervisor as soon as
possible if you become ill. The time will be counted as sick leave if it occurs during your
normally scheduled work hours, and the City's normal sick leave rules will apply.
Keeping records for all reimbursable expenses
As discussed below under "Accounting for Expenses", you must maintain a detailed record
of all reimbursable expenses incurred during your travel: meals, transportation, lodging,
baggage handling, parking fees, registration fees, telephone, and any other reasonable and
necessary expenses. In accordance with IRS rules, receipts must be submitted for.
■ Any individual expense of $25.00 or more.
■ All lodging expenses regardless of cost.
Meal allowances
The following per diem amounts (including beverages, taxes and gratuities) are allowed for
meals:
Breakfast $ 8.00
Lunch 13.00
Dinner 23.00
Total Per Diem $ 44.00
Because of reimbursement limitations by other agencies (such as P.O.S.T) or other budget
constraints, department heads may authorize lower meal allowances. Any reimbursements
exceeding the allowed per diem amounts require approval by the Director of Finance.
In calculating meal allowances for partial days, the following guidelines should be used:
Departure
■ If you depart after 8:00 a.m., deduct the breakfast allowance for that day.
■ If you depart after 2:00 p.m., deduct the breakfast and lunch allowances for that day.
■ If you depart after 8:00 p.m., deduct all meal allowances.
Return
■ If you return after 8:00 p.m.,you may claim the full per diem meal allowance for that
day.
301-5
. //4
■ If you return between 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.,you may claim the breakfast and lunch
allowances.
■ If you return between 8:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m., you may claim the breakfast
allowance.
General
■ If meals are provided without charge at a meeting or while in transit (meals served
on a plane, for example), appropriate deductions must be made from the per diem
meal allowance.
INCURRING NON-TRAVEL EXPENSES
The City will pay expenses incurred for such meetings and hospitality as may, from time to
time, be determined by the Council to be appropriate. Costs for such special occasions will
be determined by specific Council action authorizing such events.
The City will also pay expenses you incur attending meetings or conferences held locally
which do not include travel expenditures.
In addition, the City will reimburse you for costs incurred while at a meeting or other
function when such costs are directly linked to the program or subject matter of the meeting.
Examples of costs which may be borne by the City include printed materials, tapes, or other
training material which may be available for sale at the meeting.
Alcoholic Beverages
City funds should not be used to purchase alcohol or reimburse employees for alcohol
related costs. The Council may approve exceptions to this policy on a case-by-case basis.
Spouses and Guests
Spouses and guests are welcome to accompany you on City travel and at conferences,
seminars, and meetings. However, any additional costs associated with the participation of
your spouse or other guests are your responsibility. Exceptions to this policy include the
annual League of California Cities dinner and any other occasions as specifically approved
by the Council.
ACCOUNTING FOR EXPENSES
When you return from your trip or official function, a final accounting of all expenses must
be approved by your department head and submitted to Finance within five working days.
An expense report is required in all cases - whether your advance and actual expenses are
equal, you are eligible for additional reimbursement, or you owe money to the City.
The final accounting is made by completing the "Expense Report" section on the reverse
side of the TA. Only eligible expenses for which you are requesting reimbursement should
be included. Listing direct payments to vendors is not required unless it affects your request
for reimbursement (for example, reconciling any differences between an advance amount
301-6
paid for lodgings and any final reimbursable costs in excess or-this amount that you may
have incurred upon check-out as well as deductions for any personal expenses that may have
been charged to the hotel bill).
After completing the expense report, you should attach required receipts, sign the report
attesting to its accuracy, and submit it to your department head for review and approval.
If you owe the City for the unused balance of a cash advance, you should pay the amount
due to the cashier at your location and attach the cash register receipt to your expense
report
Department heads approving expense reports are responsible for ensuring that:
■ All expenses are reasonable, necessary, and consistent with these guidelines.
■ Any required receipts are attached.
■ The final disposition is correct (e.g., balance due employee; balance due City).
■ Any amounts due to the City are reimbursed. .
■ Final accounting of all expenses is submitted to Finance.
Upon approval by your department head, the expense report should be processed as follows
depending upon the circumstances:
If the City owes you and you received a cash advance
The expense report should be forwarded to Finance and the reimbursement will be
processed on the next check register. No additional documentation (such as vouchers) is
required.
If the City owes you and you did not receive a cash advance
The expense report should be forwarded to Finance along with a voucher request for
payment to you; the reimbursement will be processed on the next check register.
If you owe the City
The expense report should be forwarded to Finance with the cash register receipt attached
evidencing payment of the amount due.

Completing the Trave, .Authorization
The Travel Authorization(TA) form should be prepared whenever the total estimated cost of travel is more than
$200 or overnight lodging is required. The TA is a two—sided form:the front side provides for approval of the travel,
summarizes the cost,and provides documentation for any cash advance to the employee and direct payments to
vendors;the reverse side is for reporting actual reimbursable expenses within 5 days after travel is completed and
reconciling this final amount to the cash advance.
Completing the form itself is largely self—explanatory,and a completed sample is provided for your information. The
following highlights key areas of the TA form:
The front side of the TA is organized into rive major sections:
General Information
Identifies who is going,where the meeting or conference will be held,how long the employee will be gone,how much it
will cost,and the account number that should be charged.
Purpose
Summarizes the reason for the trip.
Cost and Payment Summary
Outlines the estimated cost of the trip by expense type(registration,transportation,lodging, meals — spaces are
provided to add categories not prelisted),vendors to whom payment will be made (including cash advances to the
employee),method of payment(voucher,purchase order,credit card),and amount. A summary' is then provided of
the payments to be made to the employee,vendors,or by credit card. Appropriate vouchers,purchase orders,or credit
card requests should be attached to the TA when it is submitted to Finance for processing.
Itinerary
Summarizes when and where the employee will be traveling.
Approvals
Provides a signature box for the employee and approval by the Department Head. Out—of—state travel requires the
further approval of the CAO.
For reporting actual expenses upon completion of travel and reconciling this amount to any cash advance received,the
reverse side of the TA is organized into 4 major sections:
Reimbursable Expense Detail
Itemizes actual expenses by type for each day of your trip(spaces are provided for dates and expense categories not
prelisted). Only expenses reimbursable to you should be listed — payments made directly to vendors should not be
included.
Mileage Detail—Personal Vehicle
Summarizes miles and cost if you were authorized to use a personal vehicle for the trip.
Travel Expense Summary
Totals the cost of the trip for personal expenses (reimbursable expense detail plus any personal vehicle costs)and
reconciles the total cost of the trip with any cash advance received,resulting in either a balance due to the employee or
due to the City.This expense report must be completed and submitted to Finance even if the cash advance and actual
reimbursable expenses are equal.
Approvals
i Provides a signature box for the employee and approval by the Department Head. Any requests for reimbursement
in excess of per diem meal allowances requires the further approval of the Director of Finance.
