Mr. Ray presented this item stating the Council authorized a bid
of $36,000 and authorized acceptance of a donation of $6,000 at

information he had provided that was incorrect. The actual
appraised value established by the Tulsa County Sheriff's
Department is $55,000 not $54,000 as relayed. Due to a legal
requirement setting minimum bids this action authorized would not
be sufficient to bid.
