Deputy County Attorney Sarah Carstensen stated that she has been working with Rob <br /> regarding the proper method to sell this property. They contacted Deanne Heffner with the <br /> State Auditor's office regarding this issue and because there is a separate Weed Fund and <br /> there is surplus property sold the revenue has to go back into the Weed fund. If another <br /> department was to request to secure any of the equipment or property they would have to <br /> determine a fair price and purchase the equipment. If these are items that were not budgeted <br /> for they could wait until the next fiscal year to budget the dollars and purchase the equipment. <br /> Bredthauer stated she would like to see the sprayer sold as soon as possible and suggested the <br /> first part of May because that is when there would be the highest demand. <br /> 12B NOXIOUS & INVASIVE WEED PRESENTATION ADDED - Mr. Schultz gave a power point <br /> presentation regarding the noxious and invasive weeds.
