Summary

Commissioners approved transferring one vehicle from Parks & Recreation to the Fire Department and declared 22 vehicles from the sheriff's office and transportation/public works surplus to be sold, with proceeds to go into the vehicle replacement fund.

Barrow County staff asked the board to approve transferring one Parks & Recreation vehicle to the Fire Department and to declare 22 vehicles surplus for sale. Staff said the surplus vehicles will be sold on GovDeals and the proceeds placed into the vehicle replacement fund; insurance proceeds from a wrecked sheriff's truck had already been deposited into that fund.

Commissioners questioned whether items listed (a John Deere tractor and a Toro mower) classify as vehicles or equipment; staff said they are "machinery and equipment" and that accounting cleanup would be performed. A motion to approve the transfer and surplus list was made by the chair and carried.
