Items that cannot be repaired, traded, or sold at auction are destroyed or may be sold for salvage.

When disposing of items that are beyond repair, the Information Service Department attempts to provide the most cost effective and environmentally friendly method for their disposal. FISCAL IMPACT: There is no cost to dispose of these surplus assets. The City receives revenue generated from items sold at auction. COMMUNICATION EFFORTS: A copy of the list of items to be disposed of has been posted on the City's website under Public Notices. Additionally, the contact information for the vendor conducting the auction has also been provided on the website.
