(Ord. 439 § 6, 1996)
Any charges against the credit card not properly identified on a credit card report, itemized travel expense voucher, or not properly allowed following a post audit required under RCW 42.24.080, shall be paid by the officer or employee by check, U.S. currency, or salary deduction. If, for any reason, disallowed charges are not repaid by the officer or employee before the credit card billing is due and payable, the town of Twisp shall have a prior lien against, and a right to withhold any and all funds payable or to become payable to the official or employee, up to an amount of the disallowed charges and interest at the same rate as charged by the company which issued the credit card. Any official or employee who has been issued a credit card by the town of Twisp shall not use the card if any disallowed charges are outstanding, and shall surrender the card upon demand by the town or auditing officer. The town of Twisp shall have unlimited authority to revoke use of any credit card issued, and upon such revocation order being delivered to the credit card company, shall not be liable for any costs.
