Summary

Facilities director Chris Bridal said the district will auction woodworking equipment from the old high school and an International dump truck; public viewings are set for Oct. 3–4 at the district warehouse, and all items are now up for bid.

Chris Bridal, facilities director for Williston School District No. 7, announced that the district will auction surplus woodworking equipment from its old high school and an International dump truck with a plow and sand spreader.

"We have some equipment no longer needed by the district," Bridal said, adding that the district is "looking to auction off to the public." He described the lot as including a JUT dust collector, a table saw with an outfeed table, belt sanders, a planer, a joiner, multiple router tables, a band saw, a full-size lathe and a downdraft table.

Bridal said the equipment comes from the district's older high school building, "back before it was the Bakken." He also noted the sale includes an International dump truck fitted with a plow attachment and a sand spreader.

A district staff member invited the public to view items in person Friday, Oct. 3, and Saturday, Oct. 4, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the district warehouse at 507 1st Street East. "Join Chris to view the items in person on either Friday, October 3 or Saturday, October 4 from 10AM to 12PM at our district warehouse at 507 1st Street East," the staff member said.

Bridal said, "All items are now up for bid. If you follow the link, it will give you instructions on how to bid." He offered to answer questions from interested buyers and closed by wishing bidders "good luck." No formal board action or vote was recorded during the announcement.

The district did not specify minimum bids, reserve prices or an auction end date in the announcement; interested buyers were directed to the district's bidding link for full instructions and contact information.
