Clean Commute Incentive Program
The Sonoma County Clean Commute Employee Benefit Program was created to promote the use of alternative forms of transportation to reduce the County’s overall carbon emissions. Permanent County employees are eligible for up to $100 per month if they ride the train, bus, carpool, bike or walk to work at least 48 days in a six-month period.

Train, Bus, Carpool, Bike and Walking
The County will provide a taxable, lump sum payment of $600 if an employee has taken the bus, carpooled, biked, or walked to work at least 48 days within a six-month reporting period. Those 48 days can be achieved through a combination of any of those modes.
Employees must use the Online Trip Tracker to log their bus, carpool, bike, and walktrips in order to be eligible for this incentive. Telework is not an eligible mode for this incentive.
The six-month reporting periods for Option 1 are from January 1st through June 30th and July 1st through December 31st.
Audits of the Bus, Carpool, Bike and Walking incentive will be conducted to ensure compliance with program requirements.
