Cell Phone Request Procedures

The District offers three type of assistance/reimbursement for employees who need to conduct District business by cell phone. 

Option # 1: Use a personal cell phone for business and receive up to a $50 monthly stipend.  This is considered taxable income and will be included in the employee’s W2 for tax reporting.

Option # 2: Be reimbursed for the business use of a personal cell phone.  It will require the submission of the detail monthly billing statement, highlighting business-related calls. Reimbursement under this option is not taxable.

Option # 3: Obtain a District-owned cell phone for business use only. This will require a monthly submission of a report indicating that the phone was used strictly for business.  The cost of personal calls made using a District-owned phone will be paid to the District.

Additional details and forms for all three options are available on the Cell Phone Request Form.
