TITLE: SURPLUS VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT FOR DISPOSAL
RECOMMENDED MOTION:
A motion to approve a resolution pursuant to Salinas Municipal Code section 12-15 declaring vehicles and equipment surplus and authorizing their disposal.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
From time-to-time, City vehicles and equipment become damaged, inoperative, or reach the end of their useful lives. When these points are reached, City staff identifies such vehicles and equipment as surplus and subject to disposal as authorized by the Salinas Municipal Code. This report presents several vehicles and pieces of City-owned equipment which staff have determined to be surplus and no longer suitable for use and therefore subject to disposal at the direction of the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
City Council is authorized pursuant to Salinas Municipal Code Section 12-15 to declare City vehicles and equipment no longer suitable for public use as surplus and to authorize their disposal through contracted auction services, or otherwise as specified in section 12-15. Following here, and attached to the resolution, is a list of vehicles and equipment that are recommended for disposal or auction:

Police Department has eight (9) vehicles listed: POL 379, POL 327, POL 443 and POL 328 have extensive damage from accidents. These vehicles will be stripped for any reusable valuable parts and then what’s left of the vehicle will be disposed of at A&S metals. The remaining 5 vehicles POL 324, POL 375, POL 312, POL 444 and POL 460 have been replaced and will be sold at auction once the emergency equipment has been removed.
Public Works has two (2) vehicles listed. Vehicle PW 98 has a blown engine, and the replacement vehicle is on order. Vehicle PW 622 has already been replaced. Both vehicles will be sold at auction.
Industrial Waste has one (1) vehicle that needs surplus. PW 102 is a John Deere tractor with major mechanical issues that was deemed not worth repairing. This vehicle is due to be replaced per the Vehicle Replacement Guide. Staff is in process of working on a replacement.
Technology related surplus products consist of one (1) iPad, one (1) iPhone, and one (1) MacBook Pro. Staff could not price one of the iPads because a comparable one with the same specifications could not be identified. Generally, this happens when a technology device becomes obsolete in the market.
CEQA CONSIDERATION:
Not a Project. The City of Salinas has determined that the proposed action is not a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378).
DEPARTMENT COORDINATION:
Disposal of surplus property requires staff time from Finance Purchasing Division, Police Department Vehicle Maintenance and Administration Divisions, Fire Department Vehicle Maintenance and Public Works Vehicle Maintenance Division.
Vehicle maintenance personnel must remove City equipment and decals from the vehicles. Public Works Vehicle Maintenance Division makes minor repairs on the vehicles to get them operational for better sale value. Fleet Maintenance coordinates and lists the sale with the auction companies.
STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE:
Disposing of vehicles and equipment not suitable for City use supports City Council goals of “Effective and Culturally Responsive Government”.
GOVERNMENT CODE SECTIONO 84308 APPLIES:
No.
FISCAL AND SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT:
The sale of the identified surplus vehicles and equipment should generate approximately $20,000 to $25,000 in revenue.
