BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Over the past several months, Facilities staff has collected an
inventory of surplus items (see attached photos) from various City
departments, including Finance, Library, Police and Transit. All
items are old and no longer needed or used. A Citywide bulletin
was issued to alert every City department that items were available for their use. All departments have
removed the items they could use. The remaining items need to be disposed of so that the Public Works
Department may proceed with decommissioning the former fleet shop and prepare it for future use.
Itemsto be sold include approximately 25 metal desks, approximately 10 wooden desks and credenzas,
approximately 25 miscellaneous tables, approximately 10 file cabinets, approximately 50 metal lockers,
approximately 15 wooden or metal shelving units, and approximately 25 chairs or couches. Itemswill be
sold at the following prices: metal desks ($10), wooden desks ($25), file cabinets ($10), miscellaneous
tables ($10 to $20), metal lockers ($5), shelving units ($10), and miscellaneous chairs and couches ($5
to $20).
The City Garage Sale will be a one-time special event open to the public to be held on Saturday,
November 7, 2009, from 9:00 a.m. until 12:00 p.m. Any items remaining after the sale will be scrapped
for recycling or disposed of as trash, whichever is more beneficial to the City. The sale will be staffed by
