Subject: REQUEST FOR SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS FOR FY 79-80: FUEL COST INCREASES
Statement of the Matter
The FY 79-80 budget included appropriations in the amount of $100,000 for the
purposes of procuring fuels and lubricants for the operating year. These
estimates were based on projected fuel costs of $0.70 per gallon. The City is
presently paying $0.96 per gallon and it is anticipated that this will increase
to about $1.00 a gallon by the end of this fiscal year.
$35,000 is requested to cover the shortage due to increased cost of fuels.
A memorandum (Exhibit 1) attached provides further information on this request.

FROM: Director of Uti1 ities & Maintenance
SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATION FOR FY 79-80
FUEL COST INCREASES
The FY 79-80 budget included a request for $100,000 to cover fuel costs
for that year. This estimate was based on the per gallon price of 70¢
per gallon. Fuel costs have now reached 96¢ a gallon with the possi-
bility of it going to $1.00 per gallon by the end of this fiscal year.
As of March 3, of this year, we have spent $86,513 for gasoline. We
will have expended the full budget allocation by mid-April.
It is requested that $35,000 additional funds be made available from
reserves in order to cover our fuel costs for the remainder of this
year. It should be recognized that this increase is due almost
entirely to price increases as our average monthly consumption of
fuel has remained relatively constant from FY 78-79.
Supplemental appropriations should be made in the amounts as follows:
General Fund
Sanitation (Fund 12-116)
Water (Fund 51)
$31,500
2,500
l ,000
for a total supplemental appropriation of $35,000
