7.S. Surplus Bridge Slabs and Piling Requested by Henry Fischer & <br />Sons - Public Works Director Requests Authorization for Disposal of <br />Other Similar Non -Inventory Items <br />The Board reviewed a Memorandum of February 25, 2002: <br />TO: James E. Chandler, <br />County Administrator <br />FROM: James W. Davis, P.E., <br />Public Works Directo <br />SUBJECT: Request for Surplus Bridr'e Slabs and Piling from Henry Fischer <br />& Sons <br />DATE: February 25, 2002 <br />DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS <br />The Road and Bridge Division has acquired several concrete bridge <br />slabs and pile sections, which were cut from bridge replacements <br />and stockpiled for possible future use by the County. They range <br />from 6-8' long. Due to the Kings Highway project being under <br />construction, we anticipate receiving more from the five new <br />bridges being installed. These surplus pieces of piling and slabs <br />are not fixed assets and are not included in any county inventory. <br />A local contractor, Henry Fischer and Sons, has requested that they <br />be allowed to obtain approximately forty pieces of the surplus pile <br />and slab sections for construction of an incinerator. They will <br />pick them up and eliminate the need for the county to dispose of <br />them. <br />ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS <br />The alternatives are: <br />Deny the request, which would result in the Road and Bridge <br />Division having to dispose of them at some time. <br />Approve the request. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS AND FUNDING <br />Staff has no objection to.approving the request. Occasionally, <br />similar non -inventory items are accumulated from construction <br />projects and permission is requested for the Public Works Director <br />to dispose of them as needed. <br />March 5, 2002 <br />
