Commission approves local surplus sale for search-and-rescue equipment and trailers
Summary
Commissioners approved local surplus of nonfunctioning message trailer, a 12-foot utility trailer, a 2003 snowmobile and related trailer with minimum bids set and a two-week local sale window; staff will attempt local sales before wider public auction.
Chair (Speaker 2) presented the surplus list that included a nonfunctioning message trailer (treated as scrap), a 12-foot utility trailer (proposed $400 minimum), and a 2003 snowmobile with trailer (proposed bundled minimum $250). Staff member (Speaker 5) recommended conducting a local surplus sale first, using local advertising channels such as the rodeo grounds and county messaging. "We'd like to do just a local surplus," Staff member (Speaker 5) said, explaining the county typically has good success selling locally.
The commission moved and approved a two-week closed local bid process with the stated minimums; if the local sale does not meet reserve expectations, staff will list the items on the public surplus website. Bids will be opened in a commission meeting two weeks after posting and staff will handle local advertising and bundling options as authorized.
