resolution, that the

vehicles acquired for the use of
county officers and departments,
and road machinery, equipment, tools, or
supplies, which is not
needed for public use, or is obsolete, or is unfit

to make unneeded, obsolete, or unfit-for-use county personal
property available to these organizations. The resolution shall
include guidelines and procedures the board considers necessary to implement a donation program under this division and
shall indicate whether the county will conduct the donation program or the board will contract with a
representative to conduct it. If a representative is known when

information such as the representative's name, address, and
telephone number. The resolution shall include within its procedures a

resolution and shall be published at least twice. The second and
any subsequent notice shall be published not less than ten nor
more than twenty days after the previous notice. A similar notice
also shall be posted continually in a conspicuous place in the

the donation program's guidelines and procedures, to receive
donated property. The board or its representatives also shall maintain a list
of all county personal property the board finds to be unneeded,
obsolete, or unfit for use and to be available for donation under
this division. The list shall be posted continually in a
conspicuous location in the offices of the county auditor and the
board of county commissioners, and, if the county maintains a web
site on the internet, the list shall be posted continually at that
web site. An item of property on the list shall be donated to the
eligible nonprofit organization that first declares to the board
or its representative its desire to obtain the item unless the
board previously has established, by resolution, a list of
eligible nonprofit organizations that shall be given priority with
respect to the item's donation. Priority may be given on the
basis that the purposes of a nonprofit organization have a direct
relationship to specific public purposes of programs provided or
administered by the board. A resolution giving priority to
certain nonprofit organizations with respect to the donation of an
item of property shall specify the reasons why the organizations
are given that priority. (C) Members of the board of county commissioners shall consult with the Ohio ethics commission, and comply with the provisions of Chapters 102. and 2921. of the Revised Code, with respect to any sale or donation under division (A) or (B) of this section to a nonprofit organization of which a county commissioner, any member of the county commissioner's family, or any business associate of the county commissioner is a trustee, officer, board member, or employee. (D) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in

expressing its intent to sell that property by
internet auction.
The resolution shall include a description of
how the auctions
will be conducted and shall specify the number of

shall
indicate whether the county will conduct the
auction or the
board will contract with a representative to
conduct the auction
and shall establish the general terms and
conditions of sale. If
a representative is known when
the
resolution is adopted, the
resolution shall provide contact
information such as the
representative's name, address, and
telephone
number.
After adoption of the resolution, the board shall
publish, in
a newspaper of general circulation in the
county, notice of
its
intent to sell unneeded, obsolete, or unfit-for-use county
personal
property by internet auction. The notice shall include a
summary
of the information provided in the resolution and shall be

web site on
the
internet, the notice shall be posted continually throughout

its representative may establish a minimum price that
will be

terms and
conditions for the particular sale, including
requirements for
pick-up or delivery, method of payment, and sales
tax. This type
of information shall be provided on the internet
at the time of
the auction and may be provided before that time
upon request
after the terms and conditions have been determined
by the board
or its representative. (D)(F) When a county
officer or department head determines
that
county-owned personal
property under the jurisdiction
of the
officer or department head,
including motor vehicles, road
machinery, equipment, tools, or
supplies, is not of immediate
need, the county
officer or
department head may notify the board
of county
commissioners,
and
the board may lease
that
personal
property to any municipal
corporation, township, or other
political subdivision of the
state.
The
lease shall require
the
county to be reimbursed
under terms, conditions, and
fees
established by the board, or under
contracts
executed by the
board.

of county commissioners finds,
by
resolution, that the county

machinery
which is not needed, or is
unfit for public use, and the
board
desires to sell
the
vehicles, equipment, or machinery
to the
person or firm from
which it proposes to purchase other
vehicles,
equipment, or
machinery, the board may offer to sell the
vehicles,
equipment,
or machinery to
that person or firm, and
to have
the
selling
price credited to the person or firm
against the purchase
price
of other vehicles, equipment, or
machinery.
(F)(H) If the board
of county commissioners
advertises for
bids
for the sale of
new vehicles, equipment, or
machinery to the
county, it may
include in the same advertisement
a notice of the
willingness of
the board to accept bids for
the purchase of
county-owned
vehicles, equipment, or machinery
which is obsolete
or not needed
for public use, and to have the
amount of
those
bids subtracted
from the selling price of the
other vehicles,
equipment, or
machinery as a means of determining
the lowest
responsible
bidder.
(G)(I) If a board of county commissioners determines that
county personal property is not needed for public use, or is
obsolete or unfit for the use for which it was acquired, and that
the property has no value, the board may discard or salvage that
property.

board,
the board shall sell the
property to the governing authority that accepted the offer first
in time. If no
community school governing authority accepts
the
offer within sixty days after the offer is made by the school
district board, the board may dispose of the property in the
applicable manner prescribed under divisions (A) to (F) of this
section.

the donation program's guidelines and procedures, to receive
donated property. The board or its representative also shall maintain a list of
all school district property the board finds to be unneeded, obsolete, or
unfit for use and to be available for donation under this
division. The list shall be posted continually in a conspicuous
location in the board's office, and, if the school district maintains a
web site on the internet, the list shall be posted continually at
that web site. An item of property on the list shall be donated
to the eligible nonprofit organization that first declares to the
board or its representative its desire to obtain the item unless
the board previously has established, by resolution, a list of
eligible nonprofit organizations that shall be given priority with
respect to the item's donation. Priority may be given on the
basis that the purposes of a nonprofit organization have a direct
relationship to specific school district purposes of programs provided or
administered by the board. A resolution giving priority to
certain nonprofit organizations with respect to the donation of an
item of property shall specify the reasons why the organizations
are given that priority. Members of the board shall consult with the Ohio ethics commission, and comply with Chapters 102. and 2921. of the Revised Code, with respect to any donation under this division to a nonprofit organization of which a board member, any member of a board member's family, or any business associate of a board member is a trustee, officer, board member, or employee.
