TO: BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
THROUGH: John A. Titkanich, Jr., County Administrator
Kristin Daniels, Director, Office of Management and Budget
Jennifer Hyde, Procurement Manager
FROM: Shelby Ball, Procurement Specialist
DATE: January 6, 2026
SUBJECT: Designation of Excess Equipment as Surplus and Authorization for Disposal
__________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The equipment on the attached list has been determined excess to the needs of Indian River County and requires disposal in accordance with Florida Statutes and Comptroller Division Policies. Items indicated for disposal will be sold by online auction, and funds received from the sale of these items will be returned to the appropriate accounts.
On October 7, 2025, the Board of County Commissioners declared asset 25672 (2010 Ford Escape SUV) as surplus and authorized its sale. Additionally, on October 21, 2025, the Board of County Commissioners declared asset 25673 (2010 Ford Escape SUV) as surplus and authorized its sale. The Facilities Division would like to have these vehicles transferred to their department for staff use.
Additionally, the Shooting Range would like to dispose of 10 shotguns. As indicated on the excess list, all but 2 of these firearms guns are in non-working condition. Since the County does not have the proper licensure (Federal Firearms License) to sell these ourselves, we have contacted Alpha Guns & Ammo, LLC, who is qualified to do so. Pending Board approval, Alpha Guns & Ammo, LLC will purchase the guns from the County for a total of $500.00 and dispose of them accordingly.
BUDGETARY IMPACT
There is no cost to the County associated with these requests.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Board declare the items on the Excess List for 012726 as surplus, and authorize their disposition, as indicated, re-activate assets 25672 and 25673, and authorize the sale of 10 shotguns to Alpha Guns & Ammo, LLC.
