Section 245.062 - Travel expenses: Adoption and contents of ordinance establishing procedures for payment; advance constitutes lien on wages1. The board of county commissioners of a county shall, by ordinance, establish procedures for the payment of authorized travel expenses of county officers and employees arising out of their official duties or employment as provided in NRS 245.060.2. The ordinance must require that each department of the county set forth in its annual budget the maximum amount of money that it estimates will be necessary to pay for necessary travel expenses for the fiscal year. The ordinance may contain procedures by which the amount budgeted by a department during the fiscal year may be increased if the estimated amount of money is insufficient to pay for actual travel expenses.3. The ordinance may authorize certain officers or employees to disburse money to pay an advance or claim for travel expenses to an employee without obtaining the approval of the board of county commissioners if the amount of such an advance or claim was included in the annual budget of the employing department.4. All money advanced to a county officer or employee to pay for his or her travel expenses constitutes a lien in favor of the county upon the accrued wages of the officer or employee to whom the advance was made. The county may advance more money to an officer or employee than the amount of his or her currently accrued wages.Added to NRS by 1961, 202; A 1973, 1082; 1979, 521; 1989, 973; 1997, 1734Added to NRS by 1961, 202; A 1973, 1082; 1979, 521; 1989, 973; 1997, 1734
