<br />City Owned Tank <br />As the data indicates, utilizing the former golf course fuel tank does not represent <br />a cost savings in the purchase price of the gasoline. There would be several non- <br />financial benefits for utilizing this tank. These include: a savings in staff time, <br />perhaps an increase in safety by not having to transport gas containers from the <br />a filling station, and having direct access to City-controlled gasoline in events <br />such as power outages or other catastrophic events. However, Staff believes that <br />these non-financial benefits are slightly overshadowed by potential negative <br />impacts of operating a gasoline storage tank. These include: additional <br />administrative time to operate a gasoline tank, potential liability of having another <br />fuel tank on City property, and ongoing maintenance and repair of such a fuel <br />tank. Given this, Staff is recommending disposal of this fuel tank. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff is recommending that the City continue with its current practice in <br />purchasing gasoline. This includes purchasing gasoline from either from Holiday <br />or The Station. Staff is also recommending that that the fuel tank acquired for the <br />golf course be disposed. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br /> <br /> <br />Greg Lee, Director of Public Works <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
