PROPOSAL PROPOSED BY: Mayor C1T MANA ER'S REVIEW
Hugh Parmer `�)� l
In accordance with established policy, the City Council appropriated money in the
current budget for rental of a car for the City Manager from the Equipment Ser-
vices Fund. The rental rate was 20e per mile and this is proposed to be increased
11 per cent in the new budget. The City could possibly realize a savings by pay-
ing the City Manager a flat car allowance of $200 per month and selling one of the
(01 cars presently used by the staff and avoid the purchase of a replacement car.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Council establish the policy of paying a car allowance
of $200 per month to the City Manager in lieu of providing a City-owned car for
his use. The amount to be paid should be reviewed each year during the budget
hearings. This policy will become effective upon adoption by the Council.
Legality
The City Attorney is out of the city and unavailable for comment but the City
currently has an established policy of paying mileage allowance for the use of
personal automobiles on City business.
Fiscal Note
Funds are available in the current budget.
City Manager's Comments
The City Manager supports this recommendation.
