Public officers and employees may be reimbursed for certain actual expenses in addition to per diem rates.
A. Public officers and employees may be reimbursed for the following expenses provided that receipts for all such expenses are attached to the reimbursement voucher:
(1) taxi or other transportation fares at the
destination of the traveler;
(2)
gratuities as allowed by the agency head or designee, not to exceed twenty
percent per transaction;
(3)
parking fees;
(4) actual costs for
travel by common carrier, provided such travel is accomplished in the most
economical manner practical;
(5)
rental cars or charter aircraft, provided less expensive public transportation
is not available or appropriate;
(6) registration fees for educational
programs or conferences, provided, if the fee includes lodging or meals, then
no per diem rates shall be paid and only actual expenses paid by the officer or
employee and not included in the fee shall be reimbursed within the limits of
2.42.2.9 NMAC; and
(7) professional fees or dues that are
beneficial to the agency's operations or mission.
(8) Under circumstances where the loss of
receipts would deny reimbursement and create a hardship, an affidavit from the
officer or employee attesting to the expenses may be substituted for actual
receipts. The affidavit must accompany the travel voucher and include the
signature of the agency head or governing board.
B. Local public bodies: Local public bodies may adopt regulations governing the reimbursement of actual expenses incurred in addition to per diem rates and mileage.
