It is difficult to understand the goal as you have explained it. As I
understand it, you want to grant administrative rights to
non-administrative users, but you don't want them to have administrative
authority.

You really cannot grant administrative access without going through the
access procedure, which includes a password. The password is either in the
script, or it is known to the user so he can type it in. Neither of these
options seems particularly attractive.
