(a) Permanent assignment of a City vehicle to an individual including the right to regularly drive a vehicle home after work can only be authorized by the City Manager and shall be done in writing.
(b) A list of employees who are authorized to regularly drive a City vehicle home after normal work hours shall be maintained by the City Manager. Each department or division shall provide the City Manager with current information identifying the specific vehicles permanently assigned. Additional permanent assignment of vehicles shall be requested by the department or division head in writing, outlining the specific justifications for such request.
(c) Each City vehicle is normally assigned either to one or to a very limited number of persons. Although this assignment establishes responsibility for maintenance of the vehicle, it does not limit its usage. Therefore, an employee who is not assigned to a vehicle but who finds himself in occasional need of transportation to carry out duties may locate an appropriate available vehicle and obtain keys from the person to whom the vehicle is assigned.
