Common use of Temporary Living Expenses Clause in Contracts

Temporary Living Expenses. A teacher may be reimbursed for the short-term rental of an apartment, house, or other residence instead of being reimbursed for hotel or motel room rental, with the written approval of the Appointing Authority, provided that the rental rate for the alternative housing is less than or comparable to hotel or motel rates and provided that the rental residence is available to all potential renters. When reviewing requests for rental of alternative short-term housing, Appointing Authorities may take into account the lower cost of groceries for the teacher compared to reimbursement for restaurant meals.
