Maywood declares police vehicle surplus for parts auction, approves raising African American Heritage flag
Summary
The board approved a Maywood Police Department request to declare a vehicle surplus and authorize auction for parts and voted to raise the African American Heritage Flag for Black History Month; staff will purchase the flag if the board does not provide one.
At its Feb. 18 meeting, the Maywood Board of Trustees approved the Maywood Police Department’s Proposal No. 5 to declare a vehicle surplus and authorize its sale on GovDeals.com for parts, and the board also voted to raise the African American Heritage Flag for the duration of Black History Month.
Chief of Police Valdimir Talley presented the vehicle-surplus proposal; Trustee N. Booker moved and Trustee A. Sanchez seconded the motion, which passed unanimously. Trustee Kimyada Wellington brought forward the flag-raising proposal; Trustee A. Sanchez seconded, and the board approved the motion unanimously. During discussion it was noted that if the board did not acquire the flag, Village Manager Willie Norfleet would purchase it and the cost would be handled administratively.
Both actions were recorded as new business and carried by the full board. The vehicle surplus authorizes staff to list the vehicle on GovDeals.com for auction for spare parts; the flag-raising is the village’s public observance for Black History Month and will be in place for the month.
