City of Ashland, Oregon / City Recorder / City Council Information / Packet Archives / Year 2005 / 07/19 / Dispose of Prop.

Dispose of Prop.

Council Communication

Authorization to Dispose of Surplus Property in Excess of $10,000

Meeting Date: July 19, 2005 Primary Staff Contact: Keith E. Woodley 552-2217 woodleyk@ashland.or.us
Department: Fire Secondary Staff Contact:
Contributing Departments: Finance
Approval: Gino Grimaldi

Statement:
This Council action authorizes the Purchasing Agent (Finance Director) to dispose of two reserve fire engines owned by the City and deemed surplus by the fire department. It is proposed that the 1981 Seagraves fire engine be donated to the City of Guanajuato, Mexico, and that the 1973 Seagraves fire engine be sold by sealed bid.
0
Background:
Section 2.50.90 of the AMC authorizes the Purchasing Agent to dispose of surplus personal property by any means determined to be in the best interests of the City. If such property has a residual value greater than $10,000, City Council authorization will be obtained prior to disposal. The following listed equipment is considered surplus by the fire department, no longer meets operational requirements and has an expended service life for department purposes. Funds for the purchase of one reliable, later model, reserve fire engine have been approved in the 2005-06 FY city equipment budget.

1973 Western States Seagraves fire engine, 83,295.4 miles, 3,871.4 hours, valued at $5,000.
1981 Western States Seagraves fire engine, 66, 474.0 miles, 1,857.0 hours, valued at $8,000.
The 1981 Western States Seagraves fire engine is proposed for donation to the Guanajuato Fire Department. Their department is in desperate need of firefighting equipment and forwarded a written request for donations to Ashland Fire & Rescue in September 2004. If this engine were made available to the firefighters in Guanajuato it would significantly improve fire safety for the residents of our sister city in Mexico.
