Discussion and Possible Action Regarding Repealing Board of Supervisors In-County Travel Allowance Retroactive to April 1, 2020 and Reversion to the Previous Practice of Filing Travel Reimbursement Claims for Travel Actually Taken
(Sponsor: Supervisor McCowen)
End
Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Repeal the Board of Supervisors In-County Travel Allowance Retroactive to April 1, 2020 and Reversion to the Previous Practice of Filing Travel Reimbursement Claims for Travel Actually Taken.
End
Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
The policy of paying an in-County travel allowance was adopted in 2008 or earlier; I believe the amounts per district may have been adjusted the first meeting in January 2009 and again in January 2011. I don’t recall any action by the Board after January 2011.
Summary of Request:
Each member of the Board of Supervisors is currently paid an in-County travel allowance in addition to the approved base salary. Following the issuance of the Public Health Officer’s Shelter-in-Place (SIP) Order which took effect March 18, 2020, public meetings, community meetings, fundraising events and public gatherings have been canceled or converted to virtual meetings. In conformance with the SIP Order Supervisors are no longer traveling on official business but are still receiving the approved in-County travel allowance. Under the circumstances it is appropriate to repeal the in-County travel allowance and revert to the previous practice of submitting travel reimbursement claims for any official in-County travel actually taken.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Do not adopt the approved motion or adopt as modified.
