AGENDA TITLE: Advertisement for Bids for the Sale of Two Surplus Power Transformer
MEETING DATE: January 19, 2000
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council authorize advertisement for bids for the sale of two
surplus power transformers.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: With the conversion to 12 kV service of the last remaining portion of the
original 4 kV distribution system (an industrial customer) the Department has
surplused two 5000 kVA, 12 kV to 4 kV power transformers. These
transformers are no longer needed and do represent a significant but unnecessary liability. Therefore, it is
recommended that the City advertise the units for sale. Based on past sales of similar equipment it is possible that
bids as high as $10,000 may be received.
The bid opening has been scheduled for Wednesday, February 9, 2000.
