SALE AND DISPOSAL OF BOOKS, EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIES;
SALE, LICENSING AND RENTAL OF PROPERTY

The Board believes that the efficient administration of the district requires the disposition of property and goods no longer necessary for the maintenance of the educational program or the operation of the school district. The Board shall direct the Superintendent or his/her designee to review periodically all district property and shall authorize the disposition by sale, licensing, rental or donation of any property not required for school purposes.

The Business Administrator/Board Secretary shall develop rules for the disposition of property which ensure that all sales are conducted in a fair and open manner consistent with the public interest, and in compliance with law.

Any district property designated for donation or unsold after such offer may be offered without cost to charitable or nonprofit organizations having a use for such property.

Supplies and equipment for specific programs, purchased with funds granted by the state and federal government, shall be disposed of in strict accordance with applicable law and regulations.
