JEFFERSON COUNTY

In the Matter of
Reimbursement for Use
of Personal Vehicles

RESOLUTION NO. 132-92
WHEREAS, the certain County Officials of Jefferson County have official duties and responsibilities which require
the use of motor vehicles. These duties and responsibilities require the use of a County owned vehicle or reimbursement
for the use of a private vehicle; and,
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners seeks to minimize the number of county-owned and operated
vehicles and reduce the costs as much as possible; and,
WHEREAS, the 1981 Washington Legislature has recognized the nature of County responsibilities and
transportation requirement by amending RC.W. 42.24.090 to authorize specific payment for the use of private
automobiles for official travel; and,
WHEREAS, to clarify savings and benefit to be incurred by passage of such a resolution, the following findings
are hereby made:
Based of figures available, certain County Officials can average in excess of 1,000 miles per month in the
performance of the above official duties and responsibilities.
Based on the figures available, the average monthly cost to operate and maintain a County owned vehicle for
an Official's use has been $300.00 per month including depreciation, fuel, repairs, and maintenance.
That it is less costly to the County to pay a flat monthly fee of $275.00 to reimburse on Official for his/her
in-County use of his/her private vehicle, than to own or maintain a County vehicle for that use.
NOW THEREFOR, BE IT RESOLVED, that based on the foregoing findings of fact, the following Jefferson
County Officials are hereby authorized to utilize his/her private automobile for all official transportation within the County
for which payment of $275.00 per month shall be made by a vouchered expense claims warrant;

provided, however, that this resolution shall not require any current or future County Official who so chooses to
use a County car at County expense in lieu of this or an appropriate reimbursement if he or she chooses, and;
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that this payment shall be in lieu of the use of any County owned vehicle and shall
be full payment for all automobile expenses incurred within the County. In addition, reimbursement for mileage traveled
outside of Jefferson County shall be paid at the same rate authorized for all County employees, said mileage to
commence at the County line. Travel to the West End of Jefferson County is considered travel within the County. Prior
to receiving payment, each County Official shall provide to the County Auditor a Certificate of Automobile liability
Insurance in the minimum amount of $100,000/$300,000 and that names Jefferson County as an additional insured as
respects Jefferson County's interests.
