Committee recommends declaring sheriff squad cars and two transit buses surplus

The Law and Justice/EMA/Facilities Committee recommended forwarding two separate surplus declarations to the full county board on June 4, 2025: one for sheriff patrol vehicles and one for county transit buses.
Sheriff Briley reported that he has four squad cars for surplus, all Ford Explorers (model years discussed but specific years were identified in agenda materials). He asked the committee to recommend surplus status for the vehicles; the committee made a motion by Josh, seconded by Harold, and the recommendation carried by voice vote.
The committee also heard a request to declare two GTS transit buses surplus. A staff presenter said, “Tonight I am requesting that 2 GTS buses be declared surplus. These are both 12 passenger transit buses. The first one is a 2014 with 208,794 miles. The other one is a 2016 with 237,181 miles.” A motion by Doug, seconded by Harold, sent that recommendation to the full board by voice vote.
Both surplus recommendations were forwarded as committee referrals; the full county board will take final action. No sale method, reserve price, or disposition timeline was recorded in the committee discussion.
