Fuel Under Budget
Deputy Public Works Director Thompson reported to the city council this week that the city has locked in prices for gasoline and diesel for March through December of 2010. Including tax, we will pay $2.42 per gallon for gas and $2.30 per gallon for diesel. While not as good as the $1.87 (gas) and $2.04 (diesel) that we were able to get in 2009, these contract prices are lower than what the 2010 budget assumes. The result will be savings of about $20,000.
We'll see the actual contracts included for council approval on the consent agenda in March.
