| Subject: | New STATE MOVING POLICY and New STATE REAL ESTATE RELOCATION POLICY Effective February 10, 2004 |
| Sent Date: | 02/19/2004 |
The State Board of Examiners amended the State Moving Policy and adopted a new policy regarding real estate relocation assistance. The policies reflect a few principal changes in policy and substantial changes in format. The most critical change affects moving reimbursement for newly hired employees:
- The agency director or designated representative shall have the authority to decide whether to pay moving expenses on a case-by-case basis up to the limits set forth in this policy (Moving Policy IIIA) and
- The maximum aggregate moving expense reimbursement shall not exceed 10% of the employee’s base salary or $5,000 whichever is less (Moving Policy IIIC4).
To see the full policy and procedure documents, please visit the State Controller’s Website and read the new policies online:

The Board hopes these new policies will provide clarity and quick reference. If you have any questions regarding these policies or procedures, my staff will be pleased to assist you at (208) 334-3100 or email the Board of Examiners at: brdexam@sco.state.id.us |
