County officials authorize April surplus sale for bikes and equipment

Clay County officials have authorized a surplus sale set for April, allowing the county to auction off various items, including bikes and other equipment. The decision was made during the County Commission meeting on March 25, 2025, where Keith proposed the motion to surplus the items, which received unanimous support from the commission.

The auction will be managed by Gerard Auction, with Brent overseeing the logistics. This initiative aims to clear out unused county property while generating revenue that can be reinvested into community services. The commission discussed the necessary procedures, including compliance with federal firearms licensing, as some items may fall under those regulations.

In addition to the surplus sale, the meeting touched on a replatting project near Greenfield Road in Beresford. This project involves breaking up a property for estate purposes, which is expected to facilitate future development in the area.

Overall, the decisions made during the meeting reflect the county's commitment to efficient resource management and community development. As the surplus sale approaches, residents can look forward to opportunities to acquire county items while supporting local initiatives.
