Elected officials in Bloomington will no longer be permitted to carry city credit cards, or p-cards. Earlier this year, an investigation was opened into the mayor's use of a city card to buy a plane ticket for his girlfriend during a city trip to Japan. The money was reimbursed and he has said in the past that she was there in an official capacity. Under the new ordinance, allowable expenses, like business lunches, will be purchased by the mayor or council member and then reimbursed by the city.
