College Place council authorizes surplus of 60 chairs, 11 sandwich boards and one TAC 511 machine
Summary
Council approved Resolution 25-029 to surplus 60 former chamber chairs, 11 sandwich boards and a TAC 511 tack machine so the items can be transferred, auctioned, or sold through surplus channels.
The College Place City Council on April 22 approved Resolution 25-029 authorizing the surplus of 60 chairs, 11 sandwich boards and a TAC 511 tack machine.
Staff member Ms. Garcia described the items as older meeting-room chairs, two sets of sandwich boards (some newer and some previously used for taped posters) and an older piece of equipment identified in the transcript as a “TAC 511” tack machine used historically for road crack sealing. Garcia said the tack machine will be handled through a surplus auction process; the sandwich boards and chairs could be offered first to other government agencies through the Association of Washington Cities surplus buy board and then auctioned or donated if unsold.
Council members asked procedural questions about the surplus process, potential reuse by other agencies, and whether items could be donated; Garcia said there are reserve rates and established processes, and donations can follow if the buy board does not move the items. A motion to approve Resolution 25-029 passed by voice vote without recorded opposition.
The resolution directs staff to follow established surplus and auction procedures; the transcript records the resolution number and the items approved for surplus but does not list a sale price or timeline in public comment.
