Title
Discussion and action on request for vehicles from County departments
Body
SUMMARY:
Assessor of Property David Simcox has requested that the City donate two surplus vehicles to his office to replace older vehicles. City Manager Rutherford recommends that all the surplus vehicles be sold at auction and Mr. Simcox obtain funding from the County and put in a bid for the vehicles that he wants. It has been pointed out that the work of the Assessor of Property is to the benefit of the County, even those properties located in the City.
A request for 2 vehicles has also been received from E-911. Previously, in 2003, the cost of a vehicle for Emergency Management was split between the City and the County.
It was suggested at the August work session that County departments be offered the first opportunity to purchase any vehicles for the established value.

Recommended Action
NECESSARY COUNCIL ACTION: Offer the County departments the first opportunity to purchase surplus vehicles using a price established through NADA or Kelly Blue Book.
