6. SALE OF SURPLUS STREET SWEEPER TO SURREY
The Public Works department has a surplus 1999 model Elgin Pelican street sweeper with 9744 hours on it that was replaced in 2017 with a new sweeper. We inquired at the time of bidding the new sweeper as to the value of the 1999 model sweeper as a trade in and the suppliers stated that they do not have sales or use for a sweeper that is 18-19 years old, so the trade in value of this unit was not of any value. Since this time, Surrey has inquired about purchasing any excess or surplus equipment that we may have as they contract their street sweeping out and would like to have their own sweeper.
In the past, the City has donated surplus equipment like older sweepers, garbage trucks to other entities such as the Park District.
It is recommended the City Council approve the sale of a 1999 Elgin Pelican street sweeper to the City of Surrey for $5,000.00.
