Committee approves sale of city 'fix-it' bike station to library
Summary
The Brentwood Public Works Committee voted to sell the existing public bike 'fix-it' station to the library (mover and seconder on the record); staff will arrange transfer and confirm depreciation or sale-at-cost details.
The Brentwood Public Works Committee voted on July 9 to transfer ownership of the citybike "fix-it" station to the library.
Parks and recreation staff had described a library construction committee request for additional bike racks or a new fix-it station. Parks staff said the library has already ordered racks and asked whether the city could transfer the existing fix-it station. After discussion about maintenance and ownership, a committee member moved to sell the unit to the library and another member seconded; the committee approved the motion by voice vote.
"I make a motion to sell the existing thing to the library," a committee member said in moving the measure. Another member seconded the motion and the chair called for the ayes.
The committee discussed selling the unit at cost or at a depreciated value so the library would assume ongoing maintenance and replacement costs. Parks staff said a modest depreciation-based price was likely and that staff could negotiate details with the library. Staff did not report a final sale price during the meeting.
Next steps: staff will prepare the sale terms and, if needed, return details to the committee or proceed under existing capital-equipment authorization procedures.
