Each Staff member and Commissioner are allotted meal expenses at conferences for the day. If a person is at conference, for part of the day, then the allocation is adjusted. If the meal reimbursement is $75.00 per day, and a staff member is only coming for the morning until after lunch, it would only be $40.00 for meal reimbursement. Therefore, if a staff member chooses to use all $75.00 for one meal if they attended the entire day, it is permissible. This documentation is all tracked through our travel expense forms. If for some reason, the amount goes over the daily meal expenses, the staff member or the Commissioner would reimburse the Park District. To date, this has not happened. Moreover, the tip is not included in the meal reimbursement policy.
On Saturday, May 10 all Oak Brook Park District Facilities will open at 10am. This late opening is due to the annual Pink 5k event.
