Subject
Ratifying Accounts Payable for the periods ending July 18, 2025

Recommended Action
A. Adopt Resolution No. 25-XXX ratifying Accounts Payable for the Period ending July 18, 2025
Discussion
Unlike the Treasurer’s Monthly Investment Reports that require regular reporting within a specific number of days, pursuant to California Government Code Section 41004 and 53607, the frequency of reporting the City’s Payment Register follows Resolution No. 5939 which provides that the report will be “presented to the City Council not less often than once a month for ratification.” As such, monthly batches of Payment Registers are presented to City Council at the second meeting following the close of the reporting period to ensure sufficient time to present the previous month's batches within one report.

The City Council did not hold a meeting in August as outlined in the approved City Council Procedures Manual, Section 8.11 City Council Recess Period, with no opportunity to provide the Weekly Payment Registers covering July’s disbursements. Following the approved resolution while considering the Recess Period, the July reporting period is being presented in the first meeting following the recess.

Staff inadvertently included the first bi-weekly July AP report in the June AP report that went to City Council on July 15, 2025.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Date: September 3, 2025
Subject
Consider amendments to the City Council Special Project Policy Recommended Action
Adopt Resolution No. 25-XXX approving the updated City Council Special Project Policy

Background
On April 2, 2025, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 25-022 approving a new Special Project Policy as part of the Budget Format Review Implementation Action Plan, Recommendation No.

26. The policy established the process for reappropriating special project funds within the City’s budget.

Under the current Special Project Policy, reappropriations of any kind require placement of an agenda item on the consent calendar for Council approval. City staff recommend amending the Special Project Policy to replace the this requirement with an informational memorandum from the City Manager to the City Council (Attachment A). The memorandum would notify the Council of the reappropriation while eliminating the need for formal Council action on the consent calendar.

Budget requests for any item that result in transfers between two different funds for new appropriations still require Council approval. Any transfer that occurs between divisions, program and accounts within the same fund are administratively approved and reported on as part of the quarterly financial reports.

Reasons for Recommendation and Available Options
The proposed amendment is intended to improve operational efficiency by:
 Reducing staff time required to prepare a formal staff report and adding it to the agenda for each reappropriation.
 Allowing staff to process reappropriation requests in a timely manner. 97 CC 09-03-2025
97 of 551
 Maintaining transparency by ensuring both the Council and the public are informed of the reappropriation through a publicly available memorandum.

It is recommended that the City Council adopt the draft Resolution (Attachment C) to update the Special Project Policy, allowing staff to streamline the reappropriation process by notifying the Council via memorandum rather than through the consent calendar.

Purpose
To establish City Council authority for the purpose and creation of Special Projects for inclusion and tracking as part of the City's budget process.

Special Projects are defined as one-time, staff-initiated projects that require City Council approval due to the need for budget appropriations that exceed a department's base budget. Base budget items are the baseline appropriations to continue operations at the current level. In instances where there are sufficient budget appropriations the City Manager will submit an informational memo to advise the City Council of the reappropriation of funds to the special project. As discussed in the Special Project Reporting section below, these projects will continue to be reported in the Special Project reports.

Special Projects are not meant to track ongoing operational costs like street pavement maintenance, minor repairs, development projects which may span multiple fiscal years, or the purchase of equipment, unless the department needs to track these expenses because of the use of restricted funds to pay for the equipment or materials.

Ongoing operational costs will be included in the department's base budget or added as an ongoing budget appropriation request to the City Council.

Policy
This policy, including any amendments, shall be approved by City Council Resolution and shall be effective upon the policy's adoption.

It is the objective of the City to ensure transparent financial reporting that allows Councilmembers, residents, and staff to track expenditures across multiple fiscal years.

These projects will be presented and discussed during the budget process, and appropriations added upon approval. Off cycle Special Project creation using the reappropriation of existing funds will be presented to City Council as a consent item for approval.

Any questions from City Council regarding Special Projects that are part of the regular Special Projects reporting process described in the section below will be answered as part of the supplemental report process. Questions that fall outside of the reporting process will be responded to in a timely manner based on the scope of the question.

Special Project Reporting
Special Projects will be included in the departmental narratives of the proposed and final budget. A summary of proposed Special Projects will be included in the summary section of the budget message and upon budget approval this list will be finalized as part of the final budget.

As part of the quarterly financial reports, staff will report on the following items for all Special Projects:
• Adoption Year
• Function - department that has the special project, for example Administration, which encompasses City Manager and City Attorney. • Program - specific budget unit (e.g., 120 City Manager) • Base and Detail Account with Detail Account description - the expense account 103

It is City of Cupertino policy that eligible persons under this Compensation Program shall be reimbursed or receive advances in accordance with the schedules, terms and conditions as set forth herein for attendance at conferences, meetings and training sessions as defined below for each. It is the intent of this policy to encourage the continuing education and awareness of said persons in the technical improvements and innovations in their fields of endeavor as they apply to the City or to implement a City approved strategy for attracting and retaining businesses in the City. One means of implementing this encouragement is through a formal reimbursement and advance schedule for authorized attendance at such conferences, meetings and training sessions.

II DEFINITIONS

4 III REIMBURSEMENT AND ADVANCE PAYMENT SCHEDULE
A. Intent

This schedule is written with the intent that the employee will make every effort to find the lowest possible cost to the City for traveling on City business. For example, if paying for parking at the airport is less expensive that paying for a taxi or air port shuttle, then the employee should drive their car and park at the airport; or if renting a car is lower than taking taxis at the out -of-town location, then a car should be rented; or air reservations should be booked in advance to obtain discounted fa res. The following procedures apply whether the expense is being paid through a reimbursement or a direct advance.

B. Registration

Registration fees for authorized attendance at a meeting or training session will be paid by the City.

C. Transportation

The City will pay transportation costs on the basis of the lowest cost intent stated in paragraph A. Eligible transportation costs include airfare (with coach fare being the maximum), van or taxi service to and from the attendee's home and airport, destination or airport parking charges, taxi and shuttle services at the out-of-town location, trains, tolls, or rental cars. Use of a personal automobile for City business shall be reimbursed or advanced at the rate per mile in effect for such use, except in no case shall it exceed air coach fare if the vehicle is being used for getting to the destination. Government or group rates offered by a provider of transportation must be used when available.

Reimbursement or advances for use of a personal automobile on City business within a local area will not be made so as to supplement that already being paid to those persons receiving a monthly mileage allowance.

D. Lodging

Hotel or lodging expenses of the employee resulting from the authorized event or activity defined in this policy will be reimbursed or advanced if the lodging and event occurs outside of the local area. Not covered will be lodging expenses related to person(s) who are accompanying the City member, but who themselves are not on City business. In this instance, for example, the difference between single and multiple occupancy rates for a room will not be reimbursed.

Where the lodging is in connection with a conference or other organized educational activity, City-paid lodging costs shall not exceed the maximum group rate published by the conference or activity sponsor, providing that lodging at the group rate is available at the time of booking.

If the group rate at the conference hotel is not available, then the non-conference lodging policy described in the next paragraph should be followed to find another comparable hotel. 115
CC 09-03-2025
115 of 551
5 Where lodging is necessary for an activity that is not related to a conference or other organized educational activity, reimbursement or advances shall be limited to the actual cost of the room at a group or government rate. In the event that a group or government rate is not available, lodging rates that do not exceed the median price for lodging for that area and time period listed on travel websites like www.hotels.com, www.expedia.com or an equivalent service shall be eligible for reimbursement or advancement.

I. POLICY

It is City of Cupertino policy that eligible persons under this Compensation Program shall be reimbursed or receive advances in accordance with the schedules, terms and conditions as set forth herein for attendance at conferences, meetings and training sessions as defined below for each. It is the intent of this policy to encourage the continuing education and awareness of said persons in the technical improvements and innovations in their fields of endeavor as they apply to the City or to implement a City approved strategy for attracting and retaining businesses in the City. One means of implementing this encouragement is through a formal reimbursement and advance schedule for authorized attendance at such conferences, meetings and training sessions.

II DEFINITIONS

CC 09-03-2025
139 of 551
4 III REIMBURSEMENT AND ADVANCE PAYMENT SCHEDULE
A. Intent

This schedule is written with the intent that the employee will make every effort to find the lowest possible cost to the City for traveling on City business. For example, if paying for parking at the airport is less expensive that paying for a taxi or airport shuttle, then the employee should drive their car and park at the airport; or if renting a car is lower than taking taxis at the out-of-town location, then a car should be rented; or air reservations should be booked in advance to obtain discounted fares. The following procedures apply whether the expense is being paid through a reimbursement or a direct advance.

B. Registration

Registration fees for authorized attendance at a meeting or training session will be paid by the City.

C. Transportation

The City will pay transportation costs on the basis of the lowest cost intent stated in paragraph A. Eligible transportation costs include airfare (with coach fare being the maximum), van or taxi service to and from the attendee's home and airport, destination or airport parking charges, taxi and shuttle services at the out-of-town location, trains, tolls, or rental cars. Use of a personal automobile for City business shall be reimbursed or advanced at the rate per mile in effect for such use, except in no case shall it exceed air coach fare if the vehicle is being used for getting to the destination. Government or group rates offered by a provider of transportation must be used when available.

Reimbursement or advances for use of a personal automobile on City business within a local area will not be made so as to supplement that already being paid to those persons receiving a monthly mileage allowance.

D. Lodging

Hotel or lodging expenses of the employee resulting from the authorized event or activity defined in this policy will be reimbursed or advanced if the lodging and event occurs outside of the local area. Not covered will be lodging expenses related to person(s) who are accompanying the City member, but who themselves are not on City business. In this instance, for example, the difference between single and multiple occupancy rates for a room will not be reimbursed.

Where the lodging is in connection with a conference or other organized educational activity, City-paid lodging costs shall not exceed the maximum group rate published by the conference or activity sponsor, providing that lodging at the group rate is available at the time of booking. If the group rate at the conference hotel is not available, then the non-conference lodging policy described in the next paragraph should be followed to find another comparable hotel. 140
CC 09-03-2025
140 of 551
5 Where lodging is necessary for an activity that is not related to a conference or other organized educational activity, reimbursement or advances shall be limited to the actual cost of the room at a group or government rate. In the event that a group or government rate is not available, lodging rates that do not exceed the median price for lodging for that area and time period listed on travel websites like www.hotels.com, www.expedia.com or an equivalent service shall be eligible for reimbursement or advancement.

Other reasonable expenses related to business purposes shall be paid consistent with this policy.

14.11 Absence Notification
An employee is expected not to be absent from work for any reason, other than personal illness, without making prior arrangements with their supervisor. Unless prior arrangements are made, an employee who, for any reason, fails to report for work must notify their supervisor by telephone, text, or email of their reason for being absent no later than 15 minutes prior to their scheduled start time.

SECTION 19: STRETCH ASSIGNMENTS

1.0 Purpose
The City of Cupertino is committed to the professional growth and development of its employees. To further that endeavor, the City has a Succession Development program to prepare current employees for future promotional opportunities within the City. To ga in the necessary experience to obtain those much needed job skills, the City believes in the 192
CC 09-03-2025
192 of 551
30 concept of "learning by doing" or "on the job training" which can occur through "stretch assignments."

A Stretch Assignment is a project or task beyond their current knowledge or skills level in order to "stretch" employees developmentally. A Stretch Assignment can also be working in an advanced position in a limited capacity. It is a way to expand an employee's skills and competencies.

[A Stretch Assignment differs from Working Out of Class (WOOC) in that WOOC requires the employee to meet the minimum qualifications of the position. There must be either a vacant budgeted position or a temporary vacancy due to vacation, sick leave, or leave of absence. The person a lready has the knowledge, skills, education or training needed to perform all the duties and responsibilities of the job].

The assignment may be a limited term of three to six months but may be extended under specific circumstances, as agreed upon by the employee and supervisor, and approved by the Superintendent. It is not to be used as a solution to fill a vacancy or understaffing.

Stretch assignments receive no additional compensation because they are considered training opportunities, unless all condit ions of Working out of Class apply. A stretch assignment is completely voluntary and can be terminated by either the employee or supervisor at any time. Should either side wish to terminate the assignment, they shall consult with each other and explain the reason(s) for terminating the assignment.

Stretch Assignments is intended to be a pilot program for 12 (twelve) months after adoption of this agreement. At the completion of the 12 (twelve) month pilot program period, City and OE3 Representatives will meet to discuss converting the pilot program to a permanent status program.

2.0 Procedure

1) Selection Process: Employees may self-identify at any time their desire to have a stretch assignment to their supervisor. A supervisor may also select an employee to participate in a stretch assignment if the employee agrees to an opportunity that the supervisor has identified. Supervisors may identify employees for stretch assignments when discussing future goals during the annual performance evaluation process or in one-on one conversations. It is up to the Supervisor and the Superintendent to determine if there is a stretch assignment available, if the employee has the capacity to take on additional assignments, the operational needs of the department would not be compromised, and it coincides with the employee's professional goals.  There may be no more than one stretch assignment per Division at any one time.  The Public Works Divisions shall be defined as:
o Grounds
o Trees and R/W
o Streets
o Fleet and Facilities
193
CC 09-03-2025
193 of 551
31  If there is more than one employee in one Division interested in a stretch assignment at one time, the following criteria may be considered for assignment:
o Time elapsed between Stretch Assignments (Employees that have not had a previous Stretch Assignments shall be considered before those who have) o Interview with Supervisor and Lead staff
o Previous Evaluation Rating
o Seniority
2) The Assignment: The assignment should be suited to the employee's skill set and those that the employee desires to develop. It might be to exchange tasks with a coworker at the same level to gain greater breadth of experience or tasks that would normally be associated with a more advanced position. A stretch assignment could also include training in another Public Works Division or City Department, with agreement by both supervisors and both department Directors. The employee and Supervisor shall identify specific competencies to be developed. The assignment will be mutually agreed upon as well as the desired outcomes.
a. Stretch Assignment in an Advanced Position: When the assignment is in a more advanced position, the employee shall not be expected to perform more than a limited number of duties. This is an opportunity for the employee to gain the skills not associated with their current position.
3) Workload: When performing a stretch assignment, expectations about the employee's current workload will need to be considered. Mutual agreement as to how the employee will modify or incorporate the stretch assignment into their current work must be made. 4) Approval: The Supervisor will fill in the Stretch Assignment form and return it to the Superintendent for approval.

5) Feedback: The employee will receive appropriate training at the beginning of the assignment to allow him/her to lear n the task sufficiently to pursue further practice independently, with limited supervision. The supervisor should provide coaching and mentoring to the employee during the assignment. Periodic feedback should occur throughout the stretch assignment. Upon conclusion of the assignment, the supervisor will use the form attached to provide the employee with feedback on the assignment.

The feedback will only be placed in the employees personnel file upon the employee's request.

SECTION 20: PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS

The purpose of performance evaluations is to have formal communication between supervisor and employee regarding job performance. It is a value to both parties to have this process be meaningful and fair.

In the event that an employee’s performance appears to need improvement, the supervisor should immediately acknowledge the problems in informal or documented oral counseling 194
CC 09-03-2025
194 of 551
32 sessions in a confidential setting. It is not in either the City’s or the employee’s interest to have the feedback delayed until the time of the annual performance evaluation.

Annual performance evaluations will occur no later than 30 days after the due date as set by Human Resources. Division Maintenance Worker III(s) should provide input in conjunction with the employee evaluation process.

SECTION 21: WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BENEFITS
Any employee sustaining an injury arising out of, or in the course of, the performance of his/her job and who cannot work at the duties and responsibilities normally assigned to that job is entitled to receive Workers’ Compensation as prescribed by state law.

21.1 Use of Sick Leave to Supplement Workers’ Compensation Payments Any employee entitled to receive Workers’ Compensation payments may elect to supplement such payments with an amo unt not to exceed that which is the employee's weekly earnings or weekly earning capacity by use of sick leave payments to the extent that such sick leave has been accrued to the employee's account. Sick leave hours used will subsequently be credited to the employee's account by dividing the employee's base hourly rate into the amount that the employee would have received in Workers’ Compensation injury pay.

SECTION 22: DISCIPLINARY ACTION

The City has a policy of progressive discipline. When the need for discipline arises, the minimum disciplinary action will be taken commensurate with the seriousness of the offense which has resulted in such discipline. The severity of the discipline will increase if corrective action is not taken.

The first and/or most modest step of progressive discipline in the case of minor breaches of the rules, regulations or policy is a verbal warning by the supervisor in charge. If the breach continues, or the offense is more than minor, in the judgment of the supervisor, the employee shall be notified through the issuance of an infraction notice. Such infraction notices shall remain in the supervisor's file and be destroyed after twelve months.

Should the offense, in the judgment of the supervisor, be so serious or be of a contin uous nature, the supervisor shall recommend more serious reprimand measures or disciplinary action to the Superintendent. These measures would include, but not be limited to, written reprimands, suspensions and termination.
195
CC 09-03-2025

30 SECTION 19: STRETCH ASSIGNMENTS

1.0 Purpose
The City of Cupertino is committed to the professional growth and development of its employees. To further that endeavor, the Ci ty has a Succession Development program to prepare current employees for future promotional opportunities within the City. To gain the necessary experience to obtain those much needed job skills, the City believes in the concept of "learning by doing" or "on the job training" which can occur through "stretch assignments."

A Stretch Assignment is a project or task beyond their current knowledge or skills level in order to "stretch" employees developmentally. A Stretch Assignment can also be working in an advanced position in a limited capacity. It is a way to expand an employee's skills and competencies.

[A Stretch Assignment differs from Working Out of Class (WOOC) in that WOOC requires the employee to meet the mini mum qualifications of the position. There must be either a vacant budgeted position or a temporary vacan cy due to vacation, sick leave, or leave of absence. The person already has the knowledge, skills, education or training needed to perform all the duties and responsibilities of the job].

The assignment may be a limite d term of three to six mont hs but may be extended under specific circumstances, as agreed upon by th e employee and supervisor, and approved by the Superintendent. It is not to be used as a solution to fill a vacancy or understaffing.

Stretch assignments receive no additional co mpensation because they are considered training opportunities, unless all conditions of Working ou t of Class apply. A stretch assignment is completely voluntary and can be terminated by eith er the employee or supervisor at any time. Should either side wi sh to terminate the assignment, they shall consult with each other and explain the reason(s) for terminating the assignment.

Stretch Assignments is intended to be a pilot program for 12 (twelve) months after adoption of this agreement. At the completion of the 12 (twelve) month pilot program period, City and OE3 Representatives will meet to discuss converting the pilot program to a permanent status program.

2.0 Procedure

1) Selection Process: Employees may self-identify at any time their desire to have a stretch assignment to their supervisor. A supervisor may also select an employee to participate in a stretch assignment if the employee agrees to an opportunity that the supervisor has identified. Supervisors may identify em ployees for stretch assignments when discussing future goals during the annual performance evaluation process or in one-on one conversations. It is up to the Supervisor and the Supe rintendent to determine if there is a stretch assignment available, if the employee has the capacity to take on 234
CC 09-03-2025
234 of 551
31 additional assignments, the operational n eeds of the department would not be compromised, and it coincides with the employee's professional goals.  There may be no more than one stretch assignment per Division at any one time.  The Public Works Divisions shall be defined as:
o Grounds
o Trees and R/W
o Streets
o Fleet and Facilities
 If there is more than one employee in one Division interested in a stretch assignment at one time, the following criteria may be considered for assignment:
o Time elapsed between Stretch Assignme nts (Employees that have not had a previous Stretch Assignments shall be considered before those who have) o Interview with Supervisor and Lead staff
o Previous Evaluation Rating
o Seniority
2) The Assignment: The assignment should be suited to the employee's skill set and those that the employee desires to develop. It might be to exchange tasks with a coworker at the same level to gain greater breadth of experience or tasks th at would normally be associated with a more advanced position. A stretch assignment could also include training in another Public Works Division or City Department, with agreement by both supervisors and both department Directors. The employee and Supervisor shall identify specific competencies to be developed. The assignment will be mutually agreed upon as well as the desired outcomes.
a. Stretch Assignment in an Advanced Position: When the assignment is in a more advanced position, the employee shall not be expected to perform more than a limited number of duties. This is an opportunity for the employee to gain the skills not associated with their current position.
3) Workload: When performing a stretch assignment, expectations about the employee's current workload will need to be considered. Mutual agreement as to how the employee will modify or incorporate the stretch assignment into their current work must be made. 4) Approval: The Supervisor wi ll fill in the Stretch Assignment form and return it to the Superintendent for approval.

5) Feedback: The employee will receive appr opriate training at the beginning of the assignment to allow him/her to learn the ta sk sufficiently to pursue further practice independently, with limited supervision. The supervisor should provide coaching and mentoring to the employee during the assignment. Periodic fe edback should occur throughout the stretch assignment. Upon conclusion of the assignment, the supervisor will use the form attached to provide the employee with feedback on the assignment.

The feedback will only be placed in the employees personnel file upon the employee's request.

SECTION 20: PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS
235
CC 09-03-2025
235 of 551
32 The purpose of performance ev aluations is to have fo rmal communication between supervisor and employee regarding job performance. It is a va lue to both parties to have this process be meaningful and fair.

In the event that an employee’s performance appears to need improvement, the supervisor should immediately acknowledge the problems in informal or documented oral counseling sessions in a confidential setting. It is not in either the City’s or the employee’s interest to have the feedback delayed until the time of the annual performance evaluation.

Annual performance evaluations will occur no la ter than 30 days after the due date as set by Human Resources. Division Maintenance Worker III(s) should provide input in conjunction with the employee evaluation process.

SECTION 21: WORKERS’ COMPENSATION BENEFITS
Any employee sustaining an injury arising out of, or in the course of, the performance of his/her job and who cannot wo rk at the duties and responsi bilities normally assigned to that job is entitled to receive Workers’ Compensation as prescribed by state law.

21.1 Use of Sick Leave to Supplement Workers’ Compensation Payments Any employee entitled to receive Worker s’ Compensation payments may elect to supplement such payments with an amount not to exceed that which is the employee's weekly earnings or weekly earning capacity by us e of sick leave payments to the extent that such sick leave has been accrued to the employee's account. Sick leave hours used will subsequently be credited to the employee's account by dividing the employee's base hourly rate into the amount that the employee woul d have received in Workers’ Compensation injury pay.

SECTION 22: DISCIPLINARY ACTION

The City has a policy of progressive discipline. When the need for discipline arises, the minimum disciplinary action will be taken commensurate with the seriousness of the offense which has resulted in such discipline. The severity of the discipline will increase if corrective action is not taken.

The first and/or most modest st ep of progressive discipline in the case of minor breaches of the rules, regulations or policy is a verbal warning by the supervisor in charge. If the breach continues, or the offense is more than minor, in the judgment of the supervisor, the 236
CC 09-03-2025
236 of 551
33 employee shall be notified thr ough the issuance of an infrac tion notice. Such infraction notices shall remain in the supervisor's file and be destroyed after twelve months.

Should the offense, in the judgment of the supervisor, be so serious or be of a continuous nature, the supervisor shall recommend more serious reprimand measures or disciplinary action to the Superintendent. These measures would include, but not be limited to, written reprimands, suspensions and termination.

Written reprimands shall be destroyed after th ree (3) years if requested in writing by the employee and provided the offense has not re-occurred.

When the disciplinary action recommended by the supervisor, and with the concurrence of the Superintendent, would impa ct "property rights" of the employee as defined by the courts of California, it shall be referred to the Director of Public Works.

A written notice from the Director of Public Works to the employee and the Union at least ten (10) working days prior to any action, shall state the proposed disciplinary action. The notice shall also contain:
a. effective date and time of the proposed action
b. the alleged reason for the proposed action
c. the acts or omission which support the allegation
d. the materials upon which the al legation(s) are based and ac cess to any other related items
e. a "Skelly" pre-disciplinary statement as to the rights of the employee to respond either orally or in writing to the Director of Pub lic Works prior to the effective date of the proposed action; and the employee’s right of appeal
f. a statement that the action w ill become final if the empl oyee fails to respond to the notice within the specified time
It is understood that an employee’s request for a Skelly meeting will postpone the effective date of action until the Skelly has been heard and the City has responded to issues raised in the Skelly meeting. In this case the effective date will be ten (10) working days from the Director’s response.

SECTION 23: LAYOFF PROCEDURE

The appointing authority may layoff employees for lack of funds, lack of work or for other similar and just cause. The appointing authorit y will identify the classification(s) subject to layoff. For purposes of this Section, Maintenance Worker I and Maintenance Worker II shall be considered the same classification. Part-time employees shall be released from City service prior to any layoff of regular, full-time employees in the same classification. 237
CC 09-03-2025
237 of 551
34 Employees in a classification(s) identified for layoff shall be laid off in reverse order of seniority, based on the date of the appointme nt to the classifica tion.

A. Intent

This schedule is written with the intent that the employee will make every effort to find the lowest possible cost to the City for traveling on City business. For example, if paying for parking at the airport is less expensive that paying for a taxi or airport shuttle, then the employee should drive their car and park at the airport; or if renting a car is lower than taking taxis at the out -of-town location, then a car should be rented; or air reservations should be booked in advance to obtain discounted fares. The following procedures apply whether the expense is being paid through a reimbursement or a direct advance.

B. Registration

Registration fees for authorized attendance at a meeting or training session will be paid by the City.

C. Transportation

The City will pay transportation costs on the basis of the lowest cost intent stated in paragraph A.

If the group rate at the conference hotel is not available, then the non -conference lodging policy described in the next paragraph should be followed to find another comparable hotel.

Where lodging is necessary for an activity that is not related to a conference or other organized educational activity, reimbursement or advances shall be limited to the actual cost of the room at a group or government rate. In the event that a group or government rate is not available, lodging rates that do not exceed the median price for lodging for that area and time period listed on travel websites like www.hotels.com, www.expedia.com or an equivalent service shall be eligible for reimbursement or advancement.

mbursement or advances shall be limited to the actual cost of the room at a group or government rate. In the event that a group or government rate is not available, lodging rates that do not exceed the median price for lodging for that area and time period listed  on travel websites  like www.
