(a) Credit cards may be issued by the department head upon the approval of the Director of General Services. It is intended that such credit cards be used by employees who do not routinely report to County facilities with fuel pumps or who work irregular hours. Employees shall use credit cards only when it is impractical to utilize County pumping stations. Credit cards may also be issued for authorized out-of-County trips. The employee shall return the receipt for any credit card purchase to the department fiscal officer.
(b) Except for use in purchasing other items which may be needed on an emergency basis, credit cards shall only be used for required purchases of gasoline and oil.
(c) The cost of items purchased which are not in compliance with this section shall be recoverable from the employee. (§ 1, Ord. 910, eff. June 25, 1981)
