State to buy fuel at discount from highway unit pumps
Iowa's state cars, about 500 to 600 vehicles, will refuel at 32 commission stations with gasoline bought at a 15 cent per gallon discount versus 26.9 cents. The shift could save at least 100000 annually, with Crabb estimating broader $500000 in savings from other measures. Governor Ray endorses the plan as a model for state government.
