Wow--this is a great question. Local government expenses, such as how much gasoline the municipality purchased for a given period, would be estimated in its budget and recorded in year-end reporting to the city manager and/or city council. It's probably going to take a request under the Freedom of Information Act to each city to get the information.

See the FOIA here: http://www.justice.gov/oip/foiaupdates/VolXVII_4/page2.htm

Know that cities aren't required to be helpful, and tend to read them literally, so word your request carefully.

Best of luck with your research!
