TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Owasso
FROM: Warren Lehr
Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Establish Minimum Value of Surplus Items and
Authorize eBay Auction
DATE: July 13, 2012
BACKGROUND:
The following Items have been deemed by the Public Works Department as no longer needed
and are being recommended to be declared surplus by the City Council:
Spare Parts for "Poly Kart" 90 gallon Waste Handling Containers, by Ameri -Kart Corp.
Typically, when the City of Owasso declares an item surplus, an approximate worth for the
individual items are submitted to the City Manager (if valued at less than $500) or City Council (if
valued at $500 or greater), along with the list for approval. Staff has reviewed the Finance
Department's "Book Value" of the items, and auction history to determine a minimum value for
each item. The following is the minimum value that has been determined for the Items:
Spare Parts for "Poly Kart" 90 gallon Waste Handling Containers, by Ameri -Kart Corp.
➢ 100*
New Style Lids, "New ", Unused w /rods
$ 100.00
➢ 100*
New Style Lids, "Used"
$ 100.00
➢ 20*
Old Style Lids (piano hinge) "New" Unused, w /hinge
$ 20.00
➢ 130*
Old Style Lids (piano hinge) " Used, w/ some used hinges
$ 130.00
➢ 150*
White Wheels "New ", Unused w /some axles
$ 100.00
➢ 150*
Black Wheels "New ", Unused w /some axles
$ 100.00
➢ 150*
Mixed Black& White Wheels Mixed "Used & New"
$ 75.00
* Numbers are Approximate
These parts are for refuse containers that have been replaced and are being sold to the highest
bidder on the eBay Auction site at this time, so these parts have little or no value to our
organization. This brand and style of container was purchased from 1992 through 2003 and
were used on our Refuse Routes from 1992 through 2009. Disposal of these containers on eBay
was approved by the City Council on December 20, 2011.
eBay AUCTION:
eBay is an online auction tool used by the City to obtain the highest resale or salvage price for
items that have outlived their useful lifespan and have no foreseeable value to the City of
Owasso. Auctioning surplus equipment on eBay has been used periodically since first approved
by the City Council in 2002.
HOW IT WORKS:
➢ City Council declares items surplus and declares a minimum value for each item.
➢ Staff gathers identification information, writes descriptions, and takes digital pictures for
each item to be auctioned.
➢ Staff also determines whether the item can be shipped or will need to be picked up by
the purchaser. If the City is responsible for shipping, staff will add shipping costs into the
bidding specifications on the auction site.
➢ Items are placed on auction for 10 days (allowing the auction to occur over two
weekends).
➢ When items are added to the eBay auction site, advertising of the auction is also done
on the City of Owasso's webpage and through other appropriate social media.
➢ During the auction period, prospective bidders may e -mail or call the designated staff
member to ask any questions they may have about the items being auctioned. The
questions and answers are posted on the item's auction page, and item descriptions
can be amended and /or corrected during the auction.
➢ At the close of the auction, eBay notifies the designated staff member of the highest
bidder and provides their e -mail address.
➢ Staff notifies the highest bidder, and arrangements for payment by credit card, check, or
cash are handled through the Utility Billing Window, and /or through the internet using
"PayPal ".
➢ Arrangements are made for pick -up or shipping of the item once a deposit has been
made. Items are released or shipped once payment is received.
➢ A deposit is normally required within 2 business days; payment in full is required within 7
days; and item removal and /or shipping arrangements must be completed within 21
days of the auction close.
eBay FEES:
Listing Fee $ 0.40
10 day listing $ 0.10
Estimated total cost $ +/- 0.50 per listing, plus a percentage of the final sales price
(There will be a listing for each bullet point item above (for a total of 7)
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends City Council declare the following Item as surplus to the needs of the City of
Owasso and approve the accompanying dollar amount as a minimum value to be utilized for
eBay auctioning.
