This is advance notice that temporary regulations have been proposed to amend K.A.R. 1-18-1a to decrease
the reimbursement rates for privately owned vehicles for travel taking place on or after April 1, 1999.
These proposed rate changes are due to changes in the maximum mileage reimbursement allowed by the IRS.
Once the temporary regulations are enacted another Informational Circular will be issued confirming the
new rates. The proposed amended rates are:
| 15¢ |
per mile for privately owned motorcycle |
| 31¢ |
per mile for privately owned automobile |
| 43¢ |
per mile for privately owned airplane |
| 43¢ |
per mile for privately owned specially equipped vehicle for the physically disabled |
Please note that the provision to reimburse mileage at the central motor pool rate for compact
cars remains in effect for any state employee choosing to use a privately owned automobile, when
a state-owned or leased vehicle is available for use. For FY 1999, this rate is 18¢ per mile
as established by Central Motor Pool. The complete schedule of motor pool rates has previously been
distributed to all state agencies in a memorandum from the Central Motor Pool Director.
