Live Oak council declares police vehicle surplus, approves transfer to Suwannee County

The City Council of Live Oak approved a revised Resolution 2026-22 declaring a 2013 Ford Explorer from the police department surplus and authorizing its transfer to Suwannee County for use in the county's fire or emergency management department.

Staff explained the revision was necessary because the original resolution treated the asset as surplus for public sale. The revised language declares the vehicle surplus and simultaneously authorizes the city to give the fully depreciated vehicle to Suwannee County for emergency management use. Council moved, seconded and approved the revised resolution by voice vote; no roll-call was recorded in the transcript for this item.

The transfer removes the vehicle from the city's fixed assets and permits Suwannee County to repurpose it for its emergency operations, as described in the revised resolution.
