Greene County approves surplus-vehicle procedures, authorizes sheriff to receive ambulance pending EMS approval and sets $5,000 minimum bid
Summary
The commission approved allowing the sheriff to receive a surplus ambulance pending EMS approval, authorized advertising EMS excess vehicles for sale and added an amendment requiring a $5,000 minimum bid for the sheriff's excess vehicle.
Greene County commissioners discussed several surplus-vehicle items and approved a package of actions to transfer and sell county vehicles.
The commission agreed to allow the sheriff to receive a surplus ambulance from EMS, with proceeds from the sale of the sheriff’s expedition to be applied toward the ambulance; the motion specified the sheriff would receive whatever the expedition sold for and that the transfer was contingent on EMS approval. Commissioners also approved a separate motion to advertise EMS’s excess vehicles for sale.
During discussion commissioners and staff asked for an appraisal or price recommendation for a 300,000-mile vehicle; the sheriff and EMS staff discussed possible refurbishment and reuse. Commissioners later amended the prior motion to require a minimum $5,000 bid on the sheriff’s excess vehicle; the amendment passed.
Staff (Doug and Marvin) were asked to prepare a valuation, advertise the expedition and coordinate sale timing. The meeting transcript recorded vocal assent to the motions but did not include a roll-call vote.
