JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
TO: Board of Commissioners
FROM: Stacie Prada, Treasurer
DATE: July 22, 2019
SUBJECT: Resolution to Declare Certain County Property as Surplus and
Sell to Government Agency
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: The Sheriff's Office and Fleet Services have removed the vehicle
identified as 2008 Ford Escape VIN #1FMCU92Z28KD65986 with asset ID #9779 from service
and indicated a need to dispose of the item. The City of Port Townsend Police Department has
indicated interest in purchasing the vehicle.
ANALYSIS: The Sheriff's Office has determined that selling this vehicle in its current condition
would be better financially than stripping it of its emergency equipment (at some expense) to
sell it at auction to a non-law-enforcement buyer for the $4,000 we average at auction for this
type of sedan. Fleet Services supports the requested sale to the City of Port Townsend Police
Department. A reasonable purchase price of $4,850 as equipped with law-enforcement
equipment has been established. Fleet Services has no objections to the sale.
RCW 36.34.020, 36.34.030, 36.34.340, 36.34.050 & 36.34.090 outline statutory requirements
to dispose of property. Intergovernmental sales and transfers may be made by the county
commissioners upon such terms and for such consideration as may be deemed adequate. RCW
36.34.130 and RCW 36.34.010 provide this authority.
RCW 36.34.020 exempts sales of surplus equipment from the requirements to publish notice
and hold a public hearing when the sale is to a government agency and the value of equipment
does not exceed $50,000.00
FISCAL IMPACT: Proceeds from the sale of the vehicle must be credited to the fund from
which the original purchase was made. Said proceeds will be returned to the Sheriff's Office.
RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Resolution to Declare Certain County Property as Surplus
and Sell to a Government Agency with a minimum sale price of $4,850.00 as equipped with
law-enforcement equipment.
