MEETING DATE: FEBRUARY 21, 2006
TO: WILLIAM A. HUSTON, CITY MANAGER
FROM: PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT/FIELD SERVICES DIVISION
SUBJECT: DECLARATION OF SURPLUS EQUIPMENT
SUMMARY
Declare the two sweepers detailed in the attached report as surplus in accordance with Section 1626
of the Tustin City Code and authorize the sale of them through a Consignment Agreement with
Haaker Sweeper Company or at public auction.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council declares the two sweepers detailed in the attached report as surplus and not
required for public use in accordance with the Tustin City Code, Section 1626 and authorize the
Public Works Department to sell the sweepers either through consignment or at public auction.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total proceeds received from the sale of the surplused equipment are to be credited to the City's
General Fund.
BACKGROUND
Section 1626a(2) of the Tustin City Code requires the purchasing agent prepare a written estimate of
value for any surplus items not usable by the City or not required for public use. The code further
requires that the City Council must find that these surplus items are not required for pubic use. The
attached report of surplus City equipment to be sold specifies the estimated value of each unit.
Haaker Sweeper Company has offered the City of Tustin $10,000 per unit with the agreement that
when they sell the units the City and Haaker will split any amount over the $10,000 minimum price.
In the past similar sweepers are sold at pubic auction for a much lower price (approximately $6,000).
It is requested that the City Council authorize the Public Works Department to sell the street
sweepers either through a Consignment Agreement with Haaker Sweeper Company or public
auction if an agreement cannot be reached with Haaker. These sweepers have been replaced and
are no longer needed.
