BACKGROUND: In March of 2006 the Board authorized the disposal of surplus personal property and confiscated property through GovDeals, an online auction service. The Director of Asset Management and Purchasing Services is authorized to declare items surplus up to $5,000. Currently the Landfill has the following four pieces of equipment that are no longer needed and therefore need to be sold. It is anticipated all will exceed the $5,000 threshold. ITEM SERIAL NUMBER 2000 Terex TS14G Pan/Scra er S4261075 1999 Terex TS14D-11 Pan/Scra er S7361090 2002 Komatsu 155AX Dozer 75089 1999 Mack Roll Off Truck 1 M2P267CXXM044307 The heavy equipment was primarily utilized during the construction of both landfills. Due to the length of hauling cover material from the borrow area for daily cover, the scraper pans are no longer used in daily operations. The dozer assisted in this operation and is also no longer utilized. The Mack truck repair cost has exceeded its value and is no longer in service. No maintenance and repair costs have been budgeted for this equipment for the past several years. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Proceeds from the sale of these items, less any applicable fees, will be returned to the Solid Waste Operations budget. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board: 1) declare the items surplus, and 2) authorize the AMPS Director to effect the sale of the items through GovDeals.
