Approval of the motion will result in sale of vehicles. Overview The 1997 Legislature made DWI enforcement more stringent by enabling cities to seize vehicles that are involved in certain violations. The seized vehicle may be held a minimum of 30 days prior to the expiration of the owner's right to challenge the forfeiture. Vehicles the City currently has in storage may be disposed of in accordance with Minnesota Statute Section 169.1217, Subd. 9. City staff is recommending that the vehicles be sold at the State auction. The 2012 budget provided for the replacement of certain vehicles which are at the end of their normal useful life. The staff has evaluated the maintenance and operating condition of the City's vehicle fleet and has determined that the functional asset life for these vehicles has ended and can be sold to the highest bidder at the well attended State Auction. Primary Issues to Consider • Value of vehicles. The City historically has received the highest value for vehicles at the State Auction due to the high number of bidders. Supporting Information • Vehicles to be sold - refer to Resolution.
