AUTHORIZE THE SALE OF DUMP TRUCK UNIT 2108 AND DUMP TRUCK UNIT 2116
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to Authorize the Sale of dump truck
unit 2108 and dump truck Unit 2116
Approval of the motion will result in sale (auction) of two dump trucks.
Overview
The 2014 budget identified and provided for the replacement of two dump trucks which are at
the end of their normal useful life. Both are 2002 Sterling chassis with J -Craft dump bodies and
snow plows. The staff has evaluated the maintenance and operating condition of the City's fleet
and has determined that the functional asset life for these vehicles has ended and can be sold to
the highest bidder at the Ritchie Brothers Auction.
Primary Issues to Consider
• Auction — construction related. The equipment proposed to be sold is two dump trucks
which would receive the highest bids at an auction which is well attended by representatives
of the construction industry; there is currently high demand for the trucks. Staff therefore
recommends selling the equipment at the Ritchie Brothers auction.
