Background:

This is a routine expense but the total for these expenditure was higher than normal due to rising prices for fuel oil related to various economic factors.

The deliveries were provided through John Moore Oil Company. The fuel company the City is contracted with was not able to deliver within the time frame required to suffice the Southwest Power Pool requirements.
