Committee recommends adoption of resolution to declare six pontoon boats surplus and sell them at auction
Summary
The Land Use Committee recommended adoption of Resolution 22,003, which declares six county-owned pontoon rental boats surplus and authorizes disposal after the Parks Department purchased six replacements; staff said the parks fleet totals 57 boats across three marinas and replacement follows a nine-year cycle.
Diane Kimsey of Parks and Recreation told the committee the Parks Department operates a pontoon rental fleet of 57 boats across three marinas and follows a nine-year replacement cycle to maintain safety for patrons. She said six replacement pontoon boats were purchased by prior legislative authorization and the six surplus boats will be sold through the county’s auction services contract.
After staff presentation there were no further questions and the committee voted to recommend adoption of Resolution 22,003.
Background: The resolution authorizes disposal of the surplus boats pursuant to chapter 11 of the Jackson County code (transcript reference). The Parks Department said the replacement purchases were budgeted and that surplus units would be disposed through the county’s term contract for auction services.
