County commissioners approve resolution declaring equipment surplus
Summary
The Board of County Commissioners approved a resolution to declare various county equipment surplus, including vehicles too damaged for Enterprise resale; inventory corrections were noted.
The Board of County Commissioners on Aug. 19 approved a resolution declaring multiple pieces of county equipment surplus, including vehicles that county staff said were too damaged for resale through Enterprise. County Auditor Ryan Elliott presented the resolution and answered commissioners’ questions before the board voted by voice.
Elliott told the board, “we have before you is, public hearing resolution to declare equipment surplus to the county.” He said the list includes broken, lost and mis‑inventoried items that will be corrected in the county’s fixed‑asset inventory.
The action matters because surplus declarations clear title and let the county dispose of or sell assets and correct official inventory records. Elliott said the items on the 30‑page list are available for sale or disposal and will be posted on publicsurplus.com.
Discussion focused on inventory tags and the condition of vehicles. Elliott acknowledged “asset tag issues” and said several vehicles were in too poor condition for Enterprise to accept for resale, so the county is pursuing its standard surplus process for those units.
During the public‑comment period no members of the public spoke. A motion to approve “resolution 20 25 1 44 to declare equipment surplus to the county” was made and seconded; the chair called for a voice vote and respondents said “Aye.” The motion passed.
The resolution directs staff to proceed with surplus disposal and to correct fixed‑asset records; no further formal directions or follow‑up tasks were specified on the record.
