SUBJECT:

title

Resolution Declaring Certain City of Joliet Property as Surplus

end

 

BACKGROUND:

The City of Joliet’s Code of Ordinances Section 2-435 provides in part that when the City Council has determined that any personal property with a remaining value is no longer necessary or useful to the City of Joliet, the property shall be declared surplus property by Resolution.

 

The Public Service Committee will review this matter.

 

CONCLUSION:

There are currently forty-four (44) vehicles or pieces of equipment that have been taken out of service for various reasons, such as accident damage/totaled, beyond repair, and/ or mechanical failure.  The vehicles have been used for all available parts.  It is recommended that the vehicles that can be sold at auction be auctioned off by GovDeals or Clinton Auto Auction, and the remainder of the vehicles sold as scrap. 

 

RECOMMENDATION:

recommendation

Based on the above, it is recommended that the Mayor and City Council approve the Resolution declaring certain City of Joliet property as surplus.
