Dickenson County declares six vehicles surplus, authorizes online auction
Summary
The board declared six county vehicles surplus — three from the sheriff’s office, two from litter control and one from maintenance — and authorized staff to dispose of them via an online government auction platform (GovDeals).
County staff told the Dickenson County Board of Supervisors that six county vehicles (three from the sheriff’s office, two from litter control and one from maintenance) are being recommended for surplus declaration and sale. The board approved a motion authorizing the county administrator to declare the units surplus and dispose of them using an online government auction platform commonly used by local governments.
Staff said the county has listed similar vehicles on GovDeals and found the online auction approach more effective than advertising in a local newspaper or on social media. The items presented to the board included condition notes, issues and mileage; the public transcript records the board’s motion to declare the vehicles surplus and to give the administrator authority to post them for sale. The board approved the motion by voice vote.
