County authorizes surplus vehicle auction, staff to tighten controls with Purple Wave
Summary
The court authorized sending listed surplus vehicles and equipment to auction and directed staff to address prior issues with the online auction vendor Purple Wave.
Fleet staff presented a list of county vehicles and equipment proposed for surplus auction, including sheriff's-office vehicles and older county units. Staff said proceeds from vehicles purchased by the sheriff's office would be returned to that office and that the remaining items would go to public auction.
The court authorized going out to bid/auction on the listed items using Purple Wave. Staff noted some mistakes on the last sale—images and descriptions mismatched—and said they will work with the vendor's territory manager to add controls and reduce errors on future listings.
