Council considers declaring vehicles and small parcel surplus; update to return to executive session
Summary
City Manager Lily Morgan presented Resolution 24-R32 to declare a vacuum truck, a tanker truck (VINs included in an amended copy) and the 'Triangle Property' (Tax Lot 363) surplus; council discussion included disposition steps and an executive-session update was promised, but a definitive recorded vote is not in the transcript.
City Manager/Recorder Lily Morgan presented Resolution 24-R32 on Dec. 17 to declare several pieces of city property surplus, including a Ford vacuum truck, a GMC tanker truck (VINs included in an amended version) and a parcel described as the Triangle Property (Tax Lot 363 West 16 DC 100) west of the Jacoby village development on 7th Avenue.
Morgan said legal counsel recommended declaring the Triangle Property surplus and explained that declaring items surplus is the step required before disposal under state and city rules. She showed councilors photos of the vehicles and said the vacuum truck appears beyond economical repair and the city hopes to find an interested party to avoid disposal costs. Morgan told the council she would bring an update in executive session at a later date.
A councilor (S2) called for and voiced a motion to approve declaring the listed items surplus; the transcript captures the call for a motion, an apparent second and discussion but does not record a clear roll-call tally or explicit final vote result in the excerpt provided.
Why it matters: declaring assets surplus is the legal prerequisite to selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of municipal property; the Triangle Property is a discrete parcel near an existing development that the council previously authorized staff to pursue selling but required the surplus declaration as a formal step.
Next steps: staff will follow state and city procedures for surplus disposition and return to the council with an update, including a report in executive session as noted by Morgan. The transcript does not include a recorded roll-call vote for this resolution.
