MEETING DATE: MARCH 1, 2011
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION FOR THE DISPOSAL OF
CERTAIN CITY WAREHOUSE INVENTORY DEEMED

RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider a resolution declaring certain City warehouse inventory as
obsolete, surplus or scrap and authorize their sale through future public auctions as an
ongoing business practice.
BACKGROUND:
This request is to approve a resolution for the sale of certain City warehouse inventory
as obsolete, surplus or scrap based on monthly cyclical inventory counts and aged
inventory analysis. This analysis is done on a monthly basis and will continue as a good
business practice.
The City currently has warehouse inventory that has become obsolete, surplus or scrap
over time. The City warehouse inventory is utilized to support the various City
departments with low total costs and immediate delivery of hundreds of items required
throughout the City.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution to declare certain City warehouse inventory
as obsolete, surplus or scrap and to schedule auctions as needed for their disposal.
