County to declare equipment surplus for online auction; EMS items may be offered to Albany Technical College
Summary
Procurement staff presented the quarterly disposal list and interim EMS director said the county has offered surplus EMS equipment to Albany Technical College; items will be posted on an online auction site after internal process.
Dougherty County staff presented the quarterly disposal list and recommended declaring listed equipment and vehicles as surplus and authorizing disposal via online auction.
Interim EMS Director James Gibney said staff typically offers retired EMS equipment to Albany Technical College because schools often lack the resources to secure such training equipment. "It's extremely useful," he said, adding that the college and other vocational programs can benefit from the items. Commissioners also suggested considering other local training programs for vehicle or equipment use.
Procurement and IT staff said some equipment may be offered internally to employees before public auction and that the county follows a standard process (including GovDeals) for disposal. The transcript records the presentation and Q&A but does not show a recorded final commission vote on the surplus list in the work session.
