CONSENT AGENDA on to the buyer, simply increasing the buyer's premium to 10%). At live auctions, our auctioneer collects a 10% buyer's premium. The Sheriff's Department plans to host a public auction at their facility on May 31, 2014, and we will attempt to sell the bulk of our surplus items there. We presently have a few items we would like to sell online, as they require extraordinary staff effort to remove from their current location. These items, as well as a few others we would like to test out online are shown on the attached excess equipment list. After the May 31, 2014 auction at the Sheriffs Department, we believe it will be most efficient for the county to sell surplus items online before the elements, vandalism, or lack of use have taken a toll on their value. With many of our live auction partners turning to online auctions, the pool of surplus goods to draw buyers to a live auction will decrease, however we will continue to utilize live auctions when practical. SOURCE OF FUNDS: No funding is required, as all expenses will be paid by the buyer. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Board authorize the Chairman to execute both the Public Surplus Seller Agreement and the Agreement for Payment Processing to enable the Purchasing Division to enroll as a seller with Public Surplus. Staff further recommends the Board declare the items on the attached Excess Equipment List as surplus and authorize their sale and/or proper disposal through Public Surplus. Additional Excess Equipment lists will be presented to the Board as the date of the live auction nears.
