City council approved Resolution R-2025-15 authorizing the sale of surplus city assets, including a police department Tahoe, at auction.

Marty explained the surplus declaration and the mechanics of sale: the vehicle will be auctioned rather than kept in department inventory. A council member asked whether the police department would receive any reimbursement from auction proceeds; Marty said reimbursement within the general fund is not typical because both police and general administration share the same fund but that the city could credit the police department with auction proceeds where funds come from separate enterprise accounts. "We could give them the sale of that, auction proceeds pretty easily," Marty said, describing an internal credit option if appropriate funds are available.

The council moved, seconded and approved the resolution on a voice vote. The transcript does not include a roll-call tally of individual council votes.
