Brown County Commission notes sheriff's surplus includes 22 pistols; some firearms will not be sent to landfill
Summary
During a routine meeting the chair said the sheriff's surplus list includes 22 pistols and assorted office equipment; he clarified that some firearms will not be sent to the landfill. The commission approved the surplus list; further disposition details were not provided in the transcript.
During other business at a Brown County Commission meeting the chair described the sheriff's office surplus list and clarified how some items would be disposed.
The chair stated: "There's a list of 22 pistols from the sheriff's office and a variety of office equipment, phones, miscellaneous from the officer's office that are going to the landfill." He added a clarification: "Some of the guns aren't going to landfill."
A commission member replied that the matter would be discussed further with legal counsel: "If anybody wants Yeah. We'll talk to him about those." The commission had already voted to approve the sheriff's surplus list earlier in the meeting.
The transcript does not specify how the firearms will be transferred, destroyed, sold, or otherwise disposed, nor does it identify the legal or procedural steps the sheriff's office will take. The chair’s remarks provide a count and a statement of intent about disposition, but no procedural or timing details were recorded in the transcript.
The commission later convened an executive session to discuss contracts and returned with no action; the transcript does not link the executive session to the firearms disposition discussion.
