body
ACTION/DECISION POINTS*
Council must approve or reject the Resolution.
LEGISLATIVE CONTEXT*
As part of the Fleet Replacement Program, vehicles replaced after exceeding their useful life are eligible to be sold through an online public auction. In 2005, the State enacted Session Law 2005-227 which authorizes local governments to increase the value of surplus property sold using informal procedures to $30,000. Any amount higher than this threshold requires Council authorization.
BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT*
The vehicle, a 2018 Kenworth Hook Lift Truck, is no longer needed since renting large yard trimmings roll-off dumpsters was discontinued effective July 1, 2025. The service was seldom used, and the residents can readily obtain the service through the private sector. The removal of this truck from our fleet will provide opportunity to replace other vehicles past their useful life. The estimated current cost to replace this vehicle is $175,000.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no cost to list the vehicle online. Proceeds of the sale of the vehicle will be returned to the Vehicle Replacement Fund.
