SALE OF SURPLUS EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES

Merchandise and equipment no longer usable for the purpose for which it was acquired or built shall be declared surplus by the Superintendent upon notification by the department to which the merchandise or equipment has been assigned.  The equipment and appliances will then be inspected to determine if they are usable or should be declared surplus.  If the items are declared surplus, the Bogalusa City School Board shall then call for sealed bids and/or public auction for the sale of such merchandise or equipment.  Said bids will be opened publicly and disposed of in a prudent, businesslike manner.  The School Board shall reserve the right to accept or reject any and all bids. 

The sale of surplus merchandise or equipment shall be final, on the "as is" or "where is" basis and will carry no warranties whatsoever.  If not sold after three (3) sales, these items will be sold as junk, or if no salvage value can be realized, destroyed in the most economical manner possible.
