Fuel site management and security

Summary

The city spends about $3 million a year on fuel and shares its four fueling sites with the county, schools, Southeast Tech and the zoo. Auditors found controls generally solid but want written fuel procedures, tagged fire extinguishers on bulk trucks, better signage, and a cleanout of former employees from the fuel-access list.
