The California Constitution and Government Code 37350, 37351 provides for a city to dispose of personal property in any way it chooses if the disposition is for the common benefit. The proposed disposition methods are presented in the table above. Staff note that in the table above there are several vehicles that cannot be auctioned, this is due to the fact that they have been used for parts for many years and therefore have no reasonable salvage or auction value.

It is anticipated that the items listed for auction will be placed in a Public Auction taking place in 2023 via licensed Auction House. Proceeds will be deposited into the City’s General Fund.

Any items the City is unable to dispose of through the proposed methods will be disposed of by recycling, donation, or other appropriate method for the common benefit.

RECOMMENDED COUNCIL ACTION:

Adopt Resolution 2023-19. Consent Agenda vote.
