Non-Conference Travel Sample Clauses

Non-Conference Travel. If lodging is not available at the federal destination per diem rate or lodging options at the per diem rate are not practical and travel is not for a conference, the Traveler must provide justification to the Department Head and obtain approval to be reimbursed for a higher rate but not to exceed 200 percent of the federal per diem rate for the destination. If the Department Head approves the higher hotel rate, this exception should be noted on the GAETL and PES documents. Traveler will be reimbursed at the federal destination per diem rate if the Department Head does not approve the higher rate. The cap at 200 percent is not meant to condone selection of a more expensive room or hotel when a less costly practical option is available. The cap is meant to mitigate the Traveler from having to personally cover ordinary, reasonable and/or necessary costs as a result of travel for City business. Department Heads should not approve a rate higher than the 200 percent cap since a higher percentage may be deemed by the IRS as “lavish and extravagant” and not ordinary, necessary and reasonable. “Lavish and extravagant” expenses are subject to taxable income reporting and are treated as paid under a non-accountable plan. In addition, the public may perceive the expenses as not a prudent use of public funds.
