The procedures for the sale of obsolete and/or surplus equipment, supplies, furniture and other district personal property are as follows:

A. The principal or department supervisor will supply a written rationale, which supports the obsolescence of the item.

B. All other departments and/or buildings will have the opportunity to view the item during a two-week period. If the item is not claimed by a district school building and/or department during the two-week period, the district will proceed with a notice of a surplus sale of these items.

C. For those remaining items with an estimated value of $100 or more that have not been claimed, a minimum value at a depreciated cost or fair market value will be placed on these items by two staff members who are familiar with items of a similar nature. For lesser valued items, the value will be determined by sealed bids or by an open auction process at the surplus sale. The value of textbooks will be established as follows: Books 2 years old establish a sale value at approx. 30% of full cost price. Books 3 years old establish a sale value at approx. 20% of full cost price. Books 4 years old establish a sale value at approx. 10% of full cost price.

D. The district will publicize this sale, which will be open to the general public after interested public and private schools are advised in writing through our legal publication of the surplus sale, stating that such surplus property will be available to view or purchase for at least 30 days prior to the sale to the general public.

E. The remaining items will be available for purchase by the general public. Staff members directly involved in the surplus process, or having influences in the process of declaring the item(s) surplus will not directly or indirectly participate in the purchase of surplus equipment, supplies, furniture or other district property.

F. The board will specify the nature and conduct of any sale of property, which exceeds the limits specified in Policy 6881.

Other materials, supplies, or consumable educational items determined to have little or no value after its educational use, or, if the cost to retrieve such item(s) from student/parent will cost more than the value of such item, then these items are considered “used up”, consumable items. Such items do not need to be declared surplus, and may be recycled, destroyed, and/ or not retrieved from the student/parent consumer involved in the educational programs of the District.
