DESCRIPTION :The City Police Department replaced five
police vehicles this year. The new vehicles are now in the police
fleet and are fully functional, which means that the older cars
can now be identified as surplus and disposed of by sale through
use of an auction.
Staff previously requested information concerning costs
associated with selling police vehicles from three auctioneers.
Two auctioneers responded: The Nationwide Companies, with
offices in Napa, and R.J. Dutcher Auctioneers Inc. with offices
in Dublin.
The two responses were very similar. Dutcher Auctioneers differed
from Nationwide in the area of fees. Nationwide will cost the
City $500 less than Dutcher for the sale of the five police
vehicles. The Nationwide Company identified that they would
charge a fixed cost of $100.00 per vehicle plus a percentage of
the sales price of 200. Dutcher would charge a fixed costs of
$200. 00 per vehicle plus a percentage of the sales price of 20%:

fee 10% <********> 10%+$100.00
Both Companies will pickup the cars and remove the logos and
stripes that are on the police cars. Additionally Nationwide
will pickup the Datsun at no cost to the City.
Staff will only allow for the vehicles to be auctioned with a
minimum predetermined pricing.
Recommendations: Staff recommends that the Council approve the
Resolution declaring the vehicles as surplus property, and
approve the sale of the vehicles identified above. Staff also
recommends using Nationwide to auction the five police vehicles
plus one blue Datsun, which was acquired during a drug seizure
