HomeMy WebLinkAbout4.10 Diposal of Surplus Property
In order to determine that the Agreement with Nationwide was still competitive Staff did request proposal
information from other auction firms in the area. Based on the overall types of items to be auctioned the
Nationwide services continue to be competitive.
..
Nationwide will retain a 10% commission on all items sold. They will not charge any fee for the
transportation of the vehicles or other items to their facility in Napa California. The cost t<? remove logos
and spot painting if necessary was competitive with the other proposals. Painting is only required if after
the removal of the logo the vehicle is still identifiable as a police vehicle. The firm also handles all DMV
paperwork on the transfer of the vehicles.

"
Although one of the other proposal received charged a slightly lower commission rate on the vehicles
(8%) the commission on other items was 20%-25%.. The City has bad good experience with the prices
received on items auctioned by Nationwide in the past. Although past sales prices can not be a guarantee
of what our future experience will be, NationWide appeared to obtain higher sales prices in recent
auctions. This would more than offset any savings obtained by a slightly lower commission.
Staff would request that the City Council adopt the attached resolution which declares the police vehicles
as surplus and authorize the use of Nationwide Auction Services for all appropriate surplus and unclaimed
property currently held by the City.
