Q: Can the town do away with town-funded vehicles for town employees and let the employees claim a 55 cent per mile deduction on their taxes like any other employee?
A: The town is doing away with vehicles being brought home whenever there is attrition. We are working with the employees to develop a policy for the future and will include the suggestion of the IRS rate of mileage reimbursement where appropriate. Also, we have consulted other towns where they gave a one-time payment to do away with this. It does require collective bargaining.
