December 6, 2010 Item No._______
Resolution Authorizing the Sale of Assets (Fire Truck)
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the Resolution
Authorizing the Sale of Assets (Fire Truck).
Overview
Council approved on November 1, 2010 to award Midwest Fire Apparatus the contract to build a
replacement tender for the fire department. Delivery of the replacement tender is expected in
February 2011.
In order to comply with Minnesota statutes regarding equipment dispositions, the City staff is
recommending the 1980 fire tender vehicle be sold by sealed bids.
The recommended public bid opening is 2:00 p.m. on Friday, February 18, 2011 at Lakeville City
Hall Council Chambers. The City reserves the right to reject any and all bids.
Primary Issues to Consider
Method of sale alternatives. The assets are proposed to be sold by sealed bid. Other
alternative sale methods include public auction or consignment at other auction locations.
Since the assets are considered to have limited value, the staff believes the most cost effective
method is sealed bids.
Public notification. Notice of the auction will be advertised in the Messages edition, Smoke
Eater, and with various used fire vehicle sellers.
