E 14 1999 <br />DELETION OF ITEMS FROM FIXED ASSETS INVENTORY <br />BOOK 6 FCL 83 <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated 218/89: <br />TO: <br />FROM: <br />The Honorable Board of <br />County Commissioners <br />Edwin M. Fry, Jr. <br />Finance Director <br />DATE: <br />February 8, 1989 FILE: <br />SUBJECT: Deletion of Items From Fixed <br />Assets Inventory <br />REFERENCES: <br />We would like to delete all beeper -pagers and air packs from the Fixed Assets <br />Inventory Listings. <br />It has become increasingly difficult to take a physical inventory of the <br />pagers since we must track down the individual who has the pager; the pager is <br />in the shop for repairs or the pager has been swapped -out because it was <br />defective. Also, since the pagers are a single use item and cannot be used for <br />other purposes, we do not feel that we will be exposing the County to a <br />significant risk of loss. The historical cost of the pagers ranges from a high <br />of $340.00 to a low of $200.00, the current replacement cost. <br />It is also difficult to take a physical inventory of the air packs since <br />we try to account for them by fire station. When the air packs go out with the <br />fire fighters on a call, sometimes they end up going back to a different station. <br />Since the air packs are a single use item and cannot be used for other purposes, <br />we do not feel that we will be exposing the County to a significant risk of <br />loss. Also, the South County Fire District has stated that they do not feel it <br />is cost -beneficial to inventory the air packs. The historical cost of the air <br />packs ranges from $600.00 to $700.00. <br />Based on the above information, we recommend that the Board not inventory <br />beeper -pagers and air packs and treat them as non -capital expenditures. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously authorized <br />the deletion of beeper -pagers and air packs from <br />Fixed Assets inventory, as recommended by Finance <br />Director Ed Fry. <br />POSTPONEMENT OF DISCUSSION REGARDING PROHIBITION OF AIRBOAT AND <br />AMPHIBIOUS VEHICLE LAUNCHING AT BLUE CYPRESS LAKE PARK <br />The Board reviewed the following letter dated 2/8/89: <br />12 <br />
