MEMORANDUM ©°
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: Janice C. Green, City ceri AD
NO
DATE: October 30, 2000
SUBJECT: Certain Council Related Expenditures
Upon his retirement, Mr. Karia had requested that I forward information regarding certain Council related
expenditures, as follows:
During the course of fulfilling the responsibilities of elected office, City Council members attend various
meetings and functions. This report presents information regarding the payment for
altendance/participatior, at such meetings and functions.
Current Practice/Guideline
Although there are no written guidelines concerning the types of expenditures that are permitted from City
funds for Council members, there are written guidelines for City employees and the Mayor. In the past,
when determining if the City will pay for the costs of a particular function/event, previous traditions have
been followed and a basic unwritten guideline that if the function/event benefits the City (taxpayers) in
some way, then costs of attendance and/or participation are paid by the City. We have not permitted
reimbursement/payments for contributions to an organization. Examples of the current practice used as
our guideline, are as follows:
PAID “NOT PAID
Annual Christmas Parties - Any organizations
Parties of any type, including City related parties
such as retirement parties, Christmas parties, etc.
©@ Main Street - 12" Night (actual cost only - does Fund Raisers such as KGH Evening with the
not include contribution amount) Starts, Heart Ball, Art League, etc.
& Delaware League of Local Government Meetings ve)
@
@
@ National League of Cities Events ® Governor’s/Mayor’s Prayer Breakfasts
®
@
(Monthly and Annual Meetings)
@® Seminars/Educational Sessions
& Dinner/Luncheon Meetings - Local Legislators _ Promotional events (Golf tournaments, social
& City/County Dinner Meetings (Members Only) hours, etc.)
@ Kent County Tourism Civic Leaders Tour (DAFB)
(TED Dinner Leaduaskip Auoid Mable)
The above lists do not cover all the various functions due to the changing nature of our business. As time
goes on and new situations arise, a determination shall be made based upon the fair and equitable solution
for both the taxpayers and members of Council.
