Receipts for accomodation expenses are required prior to
reimbursement. The advance issued by the Treasurer will be.
less than anticipated costs; full reimbursement will not be
made without receipts.

Living or per diem expenses are paid on the basis of actual
costs incurred to a maximum $95.00 per day for Council and $50.00
per day for staff. It ig unlawful for the daily allowance paid

to Council and Staff to be greater than the costs which are

actually incurred, so. the Treasury has always operated on the assumption

that any City monies it Pays out in reimbursemen

amount of the reimbursement.

(4) Our present written policy (passed September 8, 1980) covers’
_ @xpenses for staff and Council only, the proposed policy will
State our present unwritten policy which is to pay for
registration and any increased accomodation costs if your spouse
accompanies you, as a delegate of the City. The Treasury reimbursas
these increased expenses occassioned by spouses on the assumption that
the spouses are in fact representing the City beyound its borders on

instructions from Council.
