TRANSPORTATION AGENCY FOR MONTEREY COUNTY
Memorandum
To: 

Board of Directors

From:

Meeting Date:

August 24, 2016

Subject:

Computer Surplus


RECOMMENDED ACTION:
APPROVE Resolution 2016-11 declaring as surplus selected furniture, equipment, and computers; and AUTHORIZE the Executive Director to dispose of the surplus property in accordance with the Disposition of Surplus Property Policy, paragraph 4
SUMMARY:

Administrative policy for the Disposition of Surplus Property bylaws requires the declaration of identified items as surplus property by resolution prior to disposition.

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The market value of the surplus items is not significant.
DISCUSSION:
The Board last approved surplus property in August of 2013.  Since that time, the agency has purchased equipment, resulting in the need to dispose of obsolete equipment, e.g. computers, printers, and surge protectors. Administrative policy for the Disposition of Property paragraph 4 provides that surplus equipment may be disposed of in any combination of the following methods:  (a) Participation in another local agency’s public agency auction sale; (b) Conveyance of surplus property to other government agencies, school, or non-profit organizations by direct negotiated sale; (c) Donation of surplus property to other government agencies, schools, or non-profit organizations; or (d) Disposition of remaining items to local landfill.  Staff will offer the surplus computer to member agencies first, and then to non-profit organizations. This process will include posting notifications on the TAMC website and Facebook page, and advising local schools and community organizations, such as schools and the non profit agencies.
