The following vehicles and equipment meet or exceed the criteria for replacement.  The two wrecked cars were involved in accidents with City owned vehicles and the cost for repair exceeded their value.  The two mowers were equipment at Farmland when the City acquired that property.  We request City Commission approval to sell the surplus vehicles and equipment on Gov Deals as we have done in the past.
