4 MEMORANDUM TO: THRU: Rob DiSpirito, City Manager Doug Hutchens, Director of Public Works & Utilities~- FROM: Randy Moore, Division Director of Fleet Services ~ 1 DATE: November 14,2011 SUBJECT: Fuel Purchasing The Pinellas County Purchasing Department facilitates a cooperative bid for gasoline and diesel fuel. The City of Dunedin participated in this cooperative bid along with numerous other entities. The bid is for a twelve-month (12) period with an option to renew for up to four (4) additional twelve-month (12) periods. Fleet Services manages and maintains the sole fueling site for all city vehicles and equipment with the exception of the permanent emergency generators. Budget projections for 2012 were based on a four year average of fuel quantities dispensed from our site. Our anticipated fuel usage for 2012 is 56,764 gallons of E10 unleaded gasoline and 128,902 gallons of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel. There has been some discussion in the City about whether this is the most economical way to purchase these fuels. Chuck Ankney and I have looked at other options including futures and this does appear to be as economical a way to purchase these fuels as any other method in the marketplace. Other entities do purchase fuel differently, but their raw fuel costs are no better than ours. I request that we continue to participate in the Pinellas County cooperative fuel bid and that this item be added to the Agenda for the City Commission meeting scheduled for December 1 ", Please let me know if you need additional information.
