Motor Pool rentals include fuel as part of the per mile rate. The mileage rate is calculated using average cost of fuel and fuel economy by vehicle type and is intended to cover a range of fuel prices around the central average. Because of regional fuel price differences and high cost locations some transactions will fall outside this range and exceed the cost allowance of the mileage rate. In these cases it may be necessary for Motor Pool to add a surcharge to the rental to avoid losses.
For Departments that own their own vehicles and for outside agencies gasoline and propane is charged at actual cost plus $0.20/gal markup.
