An Ordinance Authorizing the Sale of Surplus Vehicles and Furniture Owned by the Village of Oak Park.
End
Overview
Overview
The Fire Department has a surplus inventory of five vehicles. The existing vehicles are scheduled to be replaced as part of the Fleet Replacement Program and should be disposed. In addition, as the Village remodels Village Hall, certain pieces of furniture that are deemed not reusable will be sold, provided to other non-profit agencies or discarded based on condition.
Body
Staff Recommendation
Approve the Ordinance
Fiscal Impact
Funds received for vehicles are placed in the fund from which they were purchased originally.
Background
In accordance with Village policy and State law (65 ILCS 5/11-76-4), the Village may, by Ordinance, authorize the disposition of designated personal property (as opposed to real property) in order to dispose of vehicles no longer usable to the Village. Items on the Attachment will be disposed of via internet auction. The Village has had recent success using this method of disposal. If the vehicles are not sold by auction, they will be disposed of as scrap.
