[Adopted 10-20-2010 by Ord. No. 25/10]
A.
Town
vehicles shall be used only by properly licensed employees designated
to use and operate the vehicle in the course of their normal employment
duties by their authorized supervisor or department head.
B.
Town
vehicles and equipment shall not be used for private purposes except
as specifically permitted herein and no authority shall be granted
for such use by any Town official or employee as a general exception
to this rule.
C.
Any
Town employee utilizing a Town vehicle shall do so in a lawful manner
and shall comply with all laws pertaining to motor vehicle operation,
including parking. The employee assigned to the use of any vehicle,
and jointly with any other employee operating such vehicle, shall
be financially responsible for all fines, penalties and similar charges
associated with the use of that vehicle.
D.
Town
employees operating Town vehicles shall promptly report every accident,
collision or other similar mishap resulting in personal injury (or
the potential for such injury through contact with pedestrians or
other vehicles) and any property damage regardless of the amount of
such damage.
E.
Town
employees operating or responsible for Town vehicles shall cause them
to be kept safe and secure and shall return them during periods when
the employee is not using them for municipal business (except parking
during short periods of breaks and the performance of other work-related
tasks) to Town property or other areas designated for the parking
of such vehicles. Town vehicles shall not be parked on streets overnight
or when otherwise not in use.
F.
No
Town employee shall incur additional charges for vehicle care, fueling
or servicing except as may be provided for by the Town in the normal
course of the operation of such vehicle.
G.
Vehicles as used in this article shall include not only licensed
and registered motor vehicles such as cars, trucks and buses, but
shall also include all manner of motorized equipment, trailers and
special purpose vehicles or equipment of any kind owned or operated
by the Town.
H.
Notwithstanding any provision of the foregoing, the Police Director
may permit specific exceptions to the foregoing when required by the
operational needs of the Police Department, but no vehicle may be
regularly assigned for purposes of commuting to and from work or other
personal use not directly related to police business.
I.
Further notwithstanding the foregoing provisions concerning personal
use, each Town Commissioner, the Director of the Police Department,
the Health Officer, the superintendent in the Department of Parks
and Public Property and the superintendent of Public Works may be
assigned the use of Town vehicles to be used in their discretion.
Such use shall be subject to the provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue
Code for the allocation of personal use of employer vehicles.
