Board directs manager to analyze options for sale of cityred truck
Loading...
Summary
The airport manager said he will prepare a market analysis and cost/value report on options for disposing of a surplus red truck (auction, consignment, city sales site or private sale) and return with recommendations at the next board meeting.
The Airport Manager told the Board he will reengage efforts to dispose of a surplus red truck previously discussed and will prepare a cost-value analysis of sale options. "We need to get rid of it. It's just sitting there and it's just losing money as it sits there," he said, describing why the board should act to move the vehicle.
Options and next steps: the manager described several disposition routes — dealer trade-in, consignment, no-reserve auctions (Big Iron, Purple Wave) or selling through the city's sales platform — and recommended gathering market comparables (NADA, eBay) to estimate value and set a reserve if needed. He said he will prepare the report and a recommendation for the board or provide a status update at the next meeting.
Board input: members asked whether the original dealer could assist or accept the vehicle back; the manager said he will look up purchase records and investigate options. No formal motion or vote occurred; the manager will return with valuation and disposal recommendations.
