A city fleet survey shows engineering with 22 vehicles of which 21 are commuters and usage ranges from under 3,000 to over 9,000 miles yearly. Recreation and building departments mix commuter cars, while riverfront has one high-mileage commuter. Officials say the fleet, costly and under scrutiny, may be cut next year based on new guidelines to assign vehicles by need and cost.
