DREAM is requesting additional authority in the amount of $45,000 to cover the additional cost to support the demands for WEX fuel cards. The original approved amount of $35,000 has been exhausted with a current authority balance of $451.93. The recommended increase of $45,000 will cover the anticipated fuel expenditures of through the end of FY2021.
The WEX fuel cards are a Visa badged card that allows users to purchase fuel at any retail location through the metro area and the State of Georgia. Ninety-five (95) percent of WEX card users are law Enforcement officers and officials. Typical annual spending on WEX fuel purchase is approximately $40,000 over the past 5 years.
Based on the FY2021 increased monthly use by the Sheriff and Marshal Department along with the pending deployment of twelve (12) WEX cards for the District Attorney’s office, DREAM projects a total annual expenditure of $80,000. See table below.
