WHEREAS, during the normal course of operations, personal property owned by
the Vallecitos Water District ("District") becomes surplus, unusable or no longer needed;
and
WHEREAS, The Board of Directors ("Board") of the District has determined that
there is a need to promote uniformity in the procedures for the sale or transfer of surplus
personal property owned by the District;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Board does hereby resolve and determine as follows:
Section 1. A detailed list clearly identifying the surplus personal property of the
District shall be approved by the General Manager in advance of any sale thereof.
Such list shall identify items thereon that are fixed assets of the District.
Section 2. Each item on a list of surplus, personal property shall include the
estimated value of such item. Any item on such list with an estimated value of at less
than ten ($10.00) shall be identified with the phrase "no inherent value." Items with an
estimated value of greater than $1,000 will be approved by the Board.
Section 3. Any item on a list of surplus personal property with a value in excess
of ten dollars ($10.00) shall be sold by the District through a publicly noticed sale, with
the highest bid taking title and possession of such personal property.
Section 4. All personal property shall be sent off -site and publicly auctioned by
a third -party auctioneer. The District intends to utilize the same third party auctioneer as
utilized by the County and City of San Diego, currently Nationwide Auction Systems, for
public notification of sale, and transfer of title and possession. The District will pay for all
auction related expenses and commissions out of the proceeds of the auction. If the
surplus personal property is determined to have value in a particular restricted market,
(such as another water district) the sale may be''advertised in a trade publication or
other suitable media specific to that market.
Section 5. All surplus personal property shall be sold "as is" and "where is", with
no warranty, guarantee, or representation of any kind, expressed or implied, as to the
condition, utility or usability of the personal property offered for sale.
