Subsection: F. Moving and Relocation Expenses

The term "employee," as used herein, includes all full-time faculty and selected administrative and civil service employees recruited outside the commuting area of the post of duty of the assignment.
Moving or relocation expenses associated with the appointment of a President shall be limited to reasonable and actual expenses and shall be subject to approval by the Board. Moving or relocation expenses associated with the appointment of other employees shall be limited to reasonable and actual expenses and shall be subject to the maximum specified in paragraph 3. below unless an exception thereto is granted by the President for an appointment to a University position.
Unless otherwise approved by the President as specified in paragraph 2. above, the maximum allowable reimbursement for moving and relocation expenses for full-time faculty and administrative and civil service positions defined pursuant to paragraph 1. above, shall be actual expenditures to a maximum of $3,000. Reimbursement policies with maximum amounts which are less than specified in this document may be established each fiscal year by the President.
If two or more individuals occupying the same household who qualify for reimbursement for moving and relocation expenses are hired at the University with commencement dates not more than 30 calendar days apart, they shall be eligible for a single reimbursement for that household to be divided equally between or among such individuals.
