MEMO TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL
FROM: ROGER NELSON, CITY MANAGER
MEETING DATE: JULY 31, 2000
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF RESOLUTION FOR THE SALE OF SURPLUS
PROPERTY
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider a resolution declaring the attached listed property surplus
and/or salvage and to authorize sale of these items to our sister city, Parras, Coahuila,
Mexico.
BACKGROUND:
These vehicles, described in Exhibit A, are no longer used by the Fire Department and
were scheduled for auction. Since our sister community in Mexico is in dire need of fire
fighting equipment, the Staff has made them available for sale to the City of Parras. The
Rotary Club of Parras spearheaded fundraising efforts in order to provide a reasonable
offer on the vehicles listed on Exhibit A. The vehicles will be purchased for $12,500 and
will be delivered to Eagle Pass for formal sale to the representatives of the City of
Parras.
Staff recommends approval of the resolution.
