All employees who operate City vehicles will be entered into the State of Oregon Auto Flag <br /> System.. The Auto Flag System generates a report anytime there is an action taken on a license <br /> that is entered into the system. The Auto Flag System is intended to make certain that employees <br /> who operate City vehicles have a valid and correct classification of license for the vehicle they <br /> operate. <br /> Page 6 <br /> <br />
