Yes:
  cache_dir aufs /var/spool/squid3 7000 16 256

Nevermind. Irrelevant due to (5)

Ah, "transparent" flag does not means what you think then.

In Squid-3.2 and older it means "traffic arriving at this port has been
redirected here via NAT in the firewall".

What did you actually want?

/21 includes .255. if you want to exclude the final .255  you will need to
write these as:
  acl localnet src 176.16.0.0-176.16.3.254

Testing with the right config is always better then changing things during
the "make live" step.

You can collapse all the localnet ranges down to a single allow, and leave
the "deny all" blocking unknown things. Such as multicast sourced requests
from the internal devices and/or people piggy-backing on your LAN without
your knowledge.

The -i and slashes around /cgi-bin/ are important:  -i (/cgi-bin/|\?)

ICP is used between cache_peer. If you don't used that set this to '0'
