Resolution 05-2023 is the Town Council of Centreville’s action to adopt a Travel Policy for Council Members (Exhibit A). The policy distinguishes local travel (within 50 miles and completed in one day) from non-local travel (over 50 miles or requiring an overnight stay), requires Council Members to initially pay registration and travel costs (hotels, mileage, meals), and allows them to submit expenses to the Town Finance Office for reimbursement after they attend the event. It states no reimbursement will be paid for events not attended, allows a Council Member to request a waiver for upfront costs paid by the Town (with payroll deduction as an option), requires travel budget requests to be included in the annual budget and tied to official duties, and directs use of the most economical transportation consistent with scheduling. The resolution lists Council members and the Town Clerk and leaves the date of passage blank.
