r- J AN I ? �0,n7� BOOK 88 FAGF 488 -7 I. Policy on Excess/Surplus Property The Board Reviewed the following memo dated January 6, 1993: DATE: JANUARY 6, 1992 TO: HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS THRU : JAMES E. CHANDLER% -- COUNTY ADMINISTRATO FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES SUBJECT: POLICY ON EXCESS/SURPLUS PROPERTY BACKGROUND: Florida State Statue 274 provides for the Board of County Commissioners to be responsible for the supervision and control of the County's tangible personal property. The law also outlines guidelines for the disposal of surplus property. In an effort to provide a standard procedure in accordance with the law, staff developed a policy for the transfer of excess property within County governmental departments as well as disposal of property that has lived its useful life. This policy calls for documentation that will provide the Fixed Assets Division a record to track and locate the County's tangible property. The policy will also provide information to all -departments within County Government, notice of excess property that can be obtained for their use with minimum expense. ANALYSIS: The Indian River County Purchasing Division has been identified as being responsible to dispose of surplus property in accordance with the State Statues. It is therefore appropriate to make this policy a part of the Purchasing Manual. RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends the Board adopt the Policy on Excess/Surplus Property as presented, and authorize it to be part of the Indian River County Purchasing Manual. ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by Commissioner Macht, the Board unanimously adopted the policy on excess/surplus property as presented and authorized it to be part of the Indian River County Purchasing Manual, as recommended by staff.
