Title
Judicial Council Administration: Increased Maximum Lodging Reimbursement Rate for San Francisco (Action Required)
body
Summary
Judicial Council staff recommends that the Judicial Council approve an increase in the maximum lodging reimbursement rate for the City and County of San Francisco from $150 per night to $250 per night. This increase will align the rate for judicial branch officers and employees with the rate implemented by the executive branch for excluded employees in July 2016.
Recommendation
Judicial Council staff recommends that the Judicial Council approve, effective August 26, 2016, an adjustment to the maximum lodging rate for the City and County of San Francisco from the current $150 per night to $250 per night for reimbursement to judicial branch officers and employees for official state business travel. All other counties will remain at existing maximum lodging reimbursement rates per night (i.e., $140 for Alameda, San Mateo, and Santa Clara Counties; $125 for Monterey and San Diego Counties; $120 for Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura Counties; and $110 for all other counties).
