Upon receiving notice from a department head or his or her designee that a lot or item of personal property is surplus to the department’s needs, the property management division shall determine whether another department has a need for the property and, if so, transfer custodianship to that department at such value as is required by law.

If no other department has a current or reasonably foreseeable future need for such property, the property officer shall declare the property surplus to the foreseeable needs of the county, determine its fair market value, and recommend to the individual or body authorized to approve disposition under SCC 4.46.201 of the most advantageous disposal method.
