JUL 25 1984 <br />BOOK 5 11 f ,{ E'790 <br />wanted, the Sheriff has disposed of it through one of the <br />alternatives provided in Chapter 274. The monies derived <br />are unanticipated revenue. The question is whether it comes <br />into the Sheriff's budget or the County Commission's budget. <br />In either event, by coming to the County Commission and <br />asking for the expenditures of those funds, the Sheriff has <br />removed any difficulty with respect to that budget process. <br />Commissioner Bird asked what amounts each vehicle <br />brought at the May 16, 1984 Sheriff's sale. <br />Sheriff Dobeck reported that the 1978 Plymouth Volare <br />brought in $1275 and the 1981 Mercedes brought in $16,000; <br />those are the only figures he had available. <br />Sheriff Dobeck cited a provision by the Attorney <br />General's office which states that property can be disposed <br />of at public action for cash without appraisal. The sale <br />must be advertised and open to the public. <br />Attorney Brandenburg explained that property valued at <br />less than $100 can be disposed of in any way that the <br />Sheriff finds most efficient. Property valued at less than <br />$200 can either be sold to the highest of three bidders or <br />sold at public auction. Property valued at over $200 must <br />be sold at public auction, which must be advertised in <br />advance in the newspaper. He pointed out that it is the <br />same statute as that which governs the disposal of the <br />County's surplus property. <br />Sheriff Dobeck reported that they have received $10,293 <br />in no-fault insurance proceeds resulting from one of the <br />brand new patrol cars being totalled. Two other vehicles <br />were totalled, and that is the reason why they really need <br />to replace these vehicles. <br />21 <br />
