Memo- Fuel Purchase DiscussionMemorandum To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Public Works Department Copy: Rick Getschow, City Manager Steven J. Stadler, Public Works Director From: Norb Kerber, Building Maintenance& Equipment Services Superintendent Date: April 16, 2008 Subject: City Fuel Purchasing OVERVIEW OF CITY OF HOPKINS FUEL PURCHASING: Currently, the City of Hopkins purchases fuel off a State of Minnesota Fuel Contract; we also have the option of purchasing fuel off a Hennepin County Contract. However, the cost would be slightly more than the State Contract even though the Contracts are virtually identical. The City is a member of the State and County "Cooperative Purchase Venture" which allows us to benefit from the State or County purchasing power to purchase gasoline or fuel. In 2007, the City used 42460 Gallons of Gasoline and 21624 Gallons of Diesel Fuel. The State and County Contracts use a formula to determine the cost for a gallon of fuel. The formula is as follows: Bid Constant + Delivery Cost = Total Bid Constant + Daily Contract Average Price per Gallon. X Total Number Gallons Delivered =Total Delivered Price The Bid Constant is the Vendors overhead and Profit. The Delivery cost is the cost to deliver the product from the fuel terminal to the customer's site. The "Total Bid Constant" is a surcharge to the standard delivery charge that is added to the "Daily Contract Average Price per Gallon" for customers that order a minimum 5000 Gallon Load and are 15 - 20 miles from the fuel terminal. The State Contract lists two Terminals in the in Twin City Area. Eagan Oil Company, Roseville and Hartland Fuels, Inver Grove Heights. The County Contract only has Eagan Oil listed. The State "Total Bid Constant" from Eagan Oil is .008 per Gallon (County Contract is also .008) The State "Total Bid Constant" from Hartland Fuels is .005 per Gallon (No county Contract) On a normal 6200 gallon load of fuel the "Total Bid Constant" is $49.60 from Eagan Oil and $31.00 from Hartland Fuels - Hartland Fuel is $18.60 less per load than Eagan. These costs are only valid on loads of 5000 Gallons or more. The "Daily Contract Average Price" is the Daily Average Rack Price that is published on the "Oil Price Information System" (OPIS) for the area that you are purchasing from. This price is adjusted daily at 6:00 PM. With the new prices released the following day at around 11 AM to 1 PM for that day. The price we pay is the price that is posted for the day the product is delivered. (The chances of ordering a load of fuel after 12 AM and having delivered the same day are about 20 % at best) There is an additional 22 (was 20) cents per Gallon for State usage tax, a .001 Per Gallon Fee for underground storage tank remedial Fund (LUST) and a .001 Per Gallon Fee for a Minnesota inspection tax. The following cities or agencies purchase fuel via the Hennepin County contract: Apple Valley, Bloomington, Brooklyn Center, Edina, Golden Valley, Minneapolis, Plymouth, St. Louis Park, Shakopee and Three Rivers Park District. Attached are the State of Minnesota and the Hennepin County contracts.
