Jasmine Lohr of Danville pumps gas Friday at the BP gas station at West North and Gilbert streets in Danville. The city of Danville may consider an ordinance that would require all gas stations in the city to have pay-first gas pumps.

DANVILLE – Jasmine Lohr always pays for her gas before she pumps.

"I think it's smarter, because then you won't go over the amount of money you have," said Lohr as she put gas in her vehicle at the BP Station at the corner of Gilbert and North streets in Danville.

Officials with the city plan to talk with local gas station owners to determine if there is interest in an ordinance that would require all gas stations in the city to have pay-first pumps.
