The following 17 surplus vehicles and three pieces of equipment meet or exceeded the criteria for replacement. We request City Commission approval to sell these surplus vehicles and equipment through Gov Deals as we have done in the past.  The power unit for the Fire Department’s Jaws of Life is not compatible with our equipment and has not been used for years.  These vehicles and equipment will be sold in two separate sales.  We have been receiving trade in value or more.
