Selectmen declare 2014 Chevrolet Caprice surplus and approve auction; two other vehicles reassigned to Public Works
Summary
The board approved surplus disposition of a 2014 Chevrolet Caprice (Car 29) to be sold via GovDeals after removing two other vehicles from the surplus list; the vehicles removed were noted as temporarily reassigned to Public Works. Motions passed 3-0.
At the Jan. 20 meeting the Waterford Board of Selectmen approved a recommendation from Purchasing Agent Shea Davy (on behalf of Chief of Police Marc Balestracci) to dispose of a 2014 Chevrolet Caprice (asset #101275, VIN 6G3NS5R34EL958190, mileage 126,610, Car 29) via GovDeals auction as a surplus item.
The board revised the original surplus list to remove two vehicles — a 2020 Chevrolet Tahoe (asset #101886, Vin GNSKDEC3LR376340, Car 1) and a 2017 Chevrolet Silverado (asset #101505, VIN 3GCUKNEC4HG276068, Car 15) — because they had appeared on a previous agenda/back-up and were in fact temporarily reassigned to Public Works. The motions to revise and to declare the Caprice surplus were both approved 3-0.
Why it matters: declaring a vehicle surplus and selling it via GovDeals is the board’s standard process to retire municipal fleet that is no longer needed for police service; noting the reassignment clarifies that two other vehicles remain in town service under Public Works.
The minutes list the VINs and mileage for the vehicles; the sale method for the Caprice is GovDeals. No sale price or reserve was recorded in the minutes.
