Re: Resolution 17 -11, Disposal of City -Owned Property (Vehicles)
Summary
Memo
Section 37.08 of the Dublin Codified Ordinance requires City Council authorization for disposal of
all motor vehicles or other property valued at $5,000 or above. As Council is aware, a replacement
schedule for vehicles is identified as part of the Capital Improvements Program (CIP). Before
vehicles are taken out of service, an evaluation is completed as to current condition and
maintenance history. If, after the evaluation, the vehicle is determined to have had minimal
maintenance costs and staff believes the vehicle provides continued value to the City, the vehicle
will be maintained as part of the City's fleet and the replacement schedule will be modified.
Resolution 17 -11 authorizes the City Manager to dispose of certain vehicles that are no longer in
service. Staff has identified the following motor vehicles for auction. Details of the vehicles are
included in the attached "Exhibit A ".
• Three IHC 7400 dump trucks /snow plows ( #2922, #2223 and #2224) - Six trucks were
eligible for Diesel Emissions Reduction Grant (DERG) funds. These are the final three
trucks to be replaced. The DERG grant pays 49% of the cost to replace the vehicles. As
part of the grant requirements, the City is required to destroy the engines and certify that the
destruction was completed.
• One 1997 and one 2003 Chevrolet 2500 - Both of these vehicles have failed engines. The
2003 would cost approximately $3,500 to repair. The 1997 would also be costly to repair
and is scheduled for replacement this fall with a CNG vehicle.
• 1999 Ford Crown Victoria's ( #1920) —This has not been used as a frontline cruiser for
several years. This is being removed from the fleet due to the condition of the vehicle
(rusted frame, age, mileage).
• 2003 Finn Hydro Seeder —This piece of equipment was replaced in 2009 and should have
been removed at that time.
• Several vehicles were identified for removal from the City fleet as part of a fleet analysis
completed in 2010. Five of these vehicles are currently being removed and several more
will be removed once the City's new CNG vehicles are purchased and operational. The
vehicles that are identified at this time for removal are as follows:
o 1999 Chevrolet 5 -10

o 2000 Chevrolet S -10
o 2003 GMC Sonoma
0 1999 Jeep Cherokee
0 2003 Ford Windstar
• 2003 Ford Windstar (noted above) — This vehicle was recalled due to faulty axles. The
dealership has offered to buy this vehicle back from the City for $6,675, a price above the
Blue Book. The Blue Book value for the make, model, mileage and condition of this vehicle
is as follows:
Fair condition = $4475.00
Good condition = $5025.00
Excellent condition = $5375.00
Staff believes that the dealership's offer of $6,675 is fair and is more than would be realized
by posting the vehicle to GovDeals.
These vehicles, except for the Ford Windstar, will be sold by internet auction, as authorized by
Section 37.08. Upon approval of this resolution, bidding will open as soon as practicable after April
11, 2011 and will remain open the required minimum of two weeks. This information will be
posted on the City of Dublin website, along with a link to take customers directly to the auction
website at www.GovDeals.com Under the terms of the City's agreement with GovDeals, the City
will pay a commission to GovDeals of 7.5% of sale proceeds; however, the City will incur no cost
unless the items are sold. The GovDeals site is well known among public entities and will provide a
broad pool of prospective buyers for City surplus items.
Recommendation
Staff recommends adoption of Resolution 17 -11.
