City of Burien credit card usage is intended to provide an efficient method for the purchase of goods and services when the use of the city’s purchasing system is not possible or practical. The city manager or designee shall implement the system set forth in this article for the distribution, authorization and control, credit limits, and payment of bills related to the use of credit cards by city officials and employees. For the purpose of this chapter, “credit card” shall mean a bank issued credit or purchasing card. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 1, 2000]
Credit cards may be issued to those city officials and employees who, in the opinion of the city manager or designee, have job responsibilities which would benefit or otherwise be facilitated by the use of a credit card. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 2, 2000]
The city manager or designee shall have explicit authority to enter into credit card programs with lending entities on behalf of the city; provided, however, that prior to changing lending entities the city manager shall report to the city council regarding the reasons for and ramifications of the change. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 3, 2000]
Credit cards may be used for the following purchases:
(1) Subscriptions, dues or memberships, fuel, supplies, minor equipment, and online services at the time of purchase. Fuel purchase is limited to city-owned vehicles when on travel status.
(2) Registrations, travel, and/or other training related expenses.
(3) Invoices received for goods and services provided to the city for authorized purchases.
(4) Expenses related to recreational programs which may include food, admission, parking, and other fees related to excursions or trips for program participants.

Credit cards may not be used for cash advances of any kind, for personal use, or for any expense not otherwise allowed under law and city policies. Each assigned card will be established with a per transaction limit, a monthly spending limit, and limits on the types of allowed purchases. These limits will be based upon the current city manager’s delegated purchasing and signature authority to staff. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 5, 2000]
Within five working days of receiving a statement from the credit card company, the official or employee responsible for the purchase (the “cardholder”) will submit the statement, all receipts and supporting documents and a properly coded and executed claims request to the finance division for payment. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 6, 2000]
Any charge against the credit card not allowed following a post audit shall be paid by the cardholder by check, U.S. currency or salary deduction. Finance charges resulting from a cardholder’s failure to submit all necessary receipts and supporting documents within the time allowed will be considered disallowed charges and will be charged to the cardholder. If for any reason disallowed charges are not repaid before the charge card billing is due and payable, the city shall have a prior lien against and a right to withhold any and all funds payable or to become payable to the cardholder up to an amount of the disallowed charges and interest at the same rate as charged by the issuing credit card company. The city shall have unlimited authority to revoke use of any charge card issued for failure to repay a disallowed charge or failure to adhere to the city’s credit card policies and procedures. The responsible cardholder shall also be subject to disciplinary action. [Ord. 695 § 1, 2018; Ord. 610 § 1, 2014; Ord. 311 § 7, 2000]
