Disposition of Surplus Equipment: 

1. APPROVE Resolution 2017-21 declaring as surplus selected furniture, equipment, and computers; and
2. AUTHORIZE the Executive Director to dispose of the surplus property in accordance with the Disposition of Surplus Property Policy, paragraph 4.

The Board last approved surplus property in August of 2016. Since that time, TAMC has upgraded some office electronics and purchased new equipment, resulting in the need to dispose of obsolete equipment, e.g. office chairs, computers, monitors and speaker sets. The items on the surplus equipment list are listed in Resolution No. 2017-21 (Attachment). Administrative policy for the Disposition of Property paragraph 4 states 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 notifying local schools and community organizations.
