Department Recommendation: The Department of Real Estate and Asset Management recommends approval to increase spending authority to cover the costs for additional fuel card management services for the remainder of FY2022.

 

DREAM is requesting an additional authority in the amount of $120,000.00 to cover the additional cost to support the demands for fuel WEX cards usage and subsidize high fuel costs. The original approved spending authority of $63,500.00 has been depleted. The remaining spending balance of $5,976.31 leaves very little funding remaining. The recommended increase of $120,000.00 will cover the anticipated annual expenditures for fuel purchases through the end of FY2022.

 

The fuel WEX cards is a Visa badged fuel card that allows users to purchase fuel at any retail location through the metro area.  Ninety-five (95) percent of WEX card users are law Enforcement officers and officials.  Typical annual spending on WEX fuel purchase is approximately $71,500.00 over the past 2 years. The high increase in the cost of fuel was not anticipated or budgeted for in FY2022.

 

The additional fuel card services will be managed and coordinated by the Department of Real Estate, Central Maintenance Fleet Division.

 

Historical Expenditures:

FY2022: The County expenditure process for payments through 7/20/2022, $57,523.69

FY2021: The County spent $61,883.00

FY2020: The County spent $35,000.00

FY2019: The County spent $26,834.00

FY2018: The County spent $34,293.00

 

Project Implications: The approval of this amendment for increase in spending authority to cover cost for additional fuel management services is a critical component in support of the County fleet using non-County owned fuel dispensing services

 

Community Issues/Concerns: None of which the Department is aware.

 

Department Issues/Concerns: If this spending authority is not approved, the Department will not be able to provide additional fuel dispensing services to the County fleet vehicles traveling out of state for the remainder of FY2022.
