SUBJECT: Seeking Authorization to Auction Surplus Items
DEPARTMENT: Purchasing
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Purchasing seeks authorization from the Board to auction surplus

BACKGROUND & ANALYSIS: The County has surplus items that are ready for disposal.
(List attached.) Purchasing is seeking authorization from the Board to auction these items
through our contracted auctioneer Global Enterprises (C14-2104-PUR). Auctioning the surplus
items is a new process. So far this year the auction proceeds from the non-TDD items have
totaled $17,968.50. This total is over twice the proceeds from the previous process of the one day
sale. (2012 - $7,998.9, 2011 - $8005.24, and 2010 - $6,285.00, No one day sale was held in
2013.) At the close of the first wave of auctions, there were 225 total registered bidders with 123
of those being from the 325_ _ zip code area. A total of 154 were from Florida and 70 bidders
were from other states with one from Mexico. (Note: Bids close on TDD items on February 21,
2014.)
OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove auction of surplus items through Global Enterprises.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approving auction of surplus items.
