Montgomery County adopts 70'-per-mile federal mileage rate
Summary
The county adopted a resolution aligning its mileage reimbursement with the IRS 2025 rate of 70 cents per mile, repealing the prior resolution and setting the effective date Feb. 3, 2025.
Montgomery County commissioners voted Feb. 3 to align the county's employee mileage reimbursement rate with the Internal Revenue Service's 2025 federal mileage rate of 70 cents per mile.
The board's resolution repeals a prior county resolution (No. 24-114) that established an earlier mileage rate and adopts the new rate effective Feb. 3, 2025. The resolution directs county reimbursements to be submitted in accordance with existing Montgomery County travel and expense rules and tasks the board with reviewing the federal mileage rate annually.
Commissioners discussed that some county employees are provided county vehicles for travel and that those employees should verify vehicle availability before relying on mileage reimbursement. The motion passed unanimously.
Staff said a formal resolution number for 2025 would be prepared for signature and that the action keeps county policy aligned with the IRS guidance for business mileage reimbursement.
The change is effective immediately by the resolution language, and the board noted it will review future IRS adjustments on an annual basis.
