2 . ilk, . <br />The Board in 1996 authorized the Director of Purchasing and Central Services to <br />dispose of assets whose value is less than $500 for a single item or group of items. <br />Surplus computers fall within those parameters. <br />The action requested by the Board is as follows: <br />• Declare up to 20 computers as surplus; and <br />• Authorize the Director of Purchasing and Central Services to enter into negotiations <br />with the Literacy Council to establish the sale price and to carry out legal <br />requirements incidental to the disposal of public assets; and <br />• Authorize the Directors of Budget and Finance to take the appropriate budget and <br />accounting action to ensure a neutral revenue position for the Literacy Council in this <br />transaction. <br />The Literacy Council will be asked to provide the County with a list of locations where <br />the computers will be placed. Up to 20 computers may be disposed of on a per <br />justifiable request basis. Computers must be used in direct service to the public to <br />promote literacy in order for the transfer to occur. <br />RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board: <br />• Declare up to 20 computers as surplus; and <br />• Authorize the Director of Purchasing and Central Services to enter into negotiations <br />with the Literacy Council to establish the sale price and to carry out legal <br />requirements incidental to the disposal of public assets; and <br />• Authorize the Directors of Budget and Finance to take the appropriate budget and <br />accounting action to ensure a neutral revenue position for the Literacy Council in this <br />transaction. <br />
