ITEM 5A

REQUEST:

Ordinance authorizing the sale of personal property owned by the
Village of Hoffman Estates (auction items).

FROM:

Tiffany Cuevas, Administrative Intern

ITEM TYPE:

Action Item - Committee

REQUEST SUMMARY
Staff is recommending approval of an ordinance declaring Village property surplus and
permitting the sale of personal property owned by the Village via online auction.
Prior to disposing of any property deemed “no longer necessary or useful to, or for the
best interests of the Village” to retain, the Village is required by state statute (65 ILCS
5/11-76-4) to declare this property as surplus.
This auction includes equipment that are no longer useful for Village operations and
cannot be repurposed. In order to reduce waste and maximize revenue, surplus
property will be sold via online public auction. Any surplus items not sold at public
auction can then be properly disposed of or recycled.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The sale of Village surplus items is expected to generate marginal revenues from the
online auction.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending approval of an ordinance authorizing the sale of personal
property owned by the Village.
