CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM BRIEFING SHEET <br />Submittal Date: <br />Originating Department: <br />Presented By: <br />Agenda Item No.: <br />8-17-2011 <br />Council Date: <br />City Manager <br />Gene Anderson <br />17. <br />9-12-11 <br />RECOMMENDED MOTION: <br />Motion to approve the travel policy for City Council members. <br />POLICY ISSUE(S): <br />Fiscal Management <br />The City Council requested that a travel policy be developed for City Council members. A survey of <br />other cities and local school districts revealed that some do not have a written travel policy, some follow <br />the same policy as city staff, and some do have a written policy just for Council members. The written <br />policies vary from half a page in length to eight pages in length. I have opted to bring forth a policy <br />similar to the city staff policy and is only one and a half pages long. It covers the most commonly <br />occurring expenses without going into excruciating detail. <br />BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: <br />None <br />EXHIBITS: <br />Travel Policy <br />ACTION: <br />BUDGET INFO: <br />❑ Financial Report ❑ Minute Order <br />Expense <br />$NA <br />❑ Department Report ❑ Resolution <br />Budgeted Amt. <br />$NA <br />❑ Presentation ❑ Ordinance <br />y'I'D Actual <br />$NA <br />❑ Public Hearing ❑ Other <br />Acct.
