SPEAKER Requested by: Division of Purchasing 1 AN ACT 2 RELATING TO THE SALE, TRADE-IN OR EXCHANGE OF STATE PERSONAL PROPERTY; AMEND- 3 ING SECTION 67-5722, IDAHO CODE, TO PROVIDE THAT THE ADMINISTRATOR OF THE 4 DIVISION OF PURCHASING MAY PERMIT AN EXCHANGE OF PROPERTY IN PART PAYMENT 5 FOR NEW PROPERTY ACQUISITIONS FROM CONTRACTS FOR THE SAME OR SIMILAR PROP- 6 ERTY; AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE. 7 Be It Enacted by the Legislature of the State of Idaho: 8 SECTION 1. That Section 67-5722, Idaho Code, be, and the same is hereby 9 amended to read as follows: 10 67-5722. SALE, TRADE-IN OR EXCHANGE OF STATE PERSONAL PROPERTY. Whenever 11 any agency owns any property no longer economical to use, the administrator of 12 the division of purchasing may dispose of such property by exchanging the same 13 in part payment for new property, as provided for in this section. The admin- 14 istrator of the division of purchasing shall include in his request for bids a 15 full description of the property to be exchanged as part payment and shall 16 permit each registered vendor to examine the same, and the contract shall be 17 awarded on the basis of net cost to the state after allowance for the property 18 to be exchanged in part payment. In addition, the administrator of the divi- 19 sion of purchasing may permit an exchange of property in part payment for new 20 property acquisitions from contracts for the same or similar property. 21 Exchange of property will be permitted only when it is determined by the 22 administrator of the division of purchasing that all other methods of disposal 23 of the property sought to be exchanged will yield a lesser monetary return to 24 the state. 25 In accordance with the internal management policies, guidelines or 26 instructions of the board of examiners, the head of any agency may declare as 27 surplus any item of personal property. 28 SECTION 2. This act shall be in full force and effect on and after July 29 1, 2000.
STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS09341
Trade-ins of property in part payment for new property can
reduce the cost of new property. Existing purchasing law
limits trade-ins to very narrow circumstances. The property to
be traded must be specifically identified in bid documents.
When this cannot be done, trade-ins are precluded and agencies
may forfeit significant cost savings. For example, trade-ins
are precluded under statewide contracts (applicable to all
agencies) because it is not possible to make the required
property identification at the time of the bid. The proposed
legislation would amend Idaho Code 67-5722 to give
flexibility to allow agencies to use trade-ins when they would
yield a better return than other methods of disposal and
reduce the cost of new property.
FISCAL IMPACT
No negative fiscal impact. The proposed legislation should
allow state agencies to benefit on trade-ins, particularly in
the area of technology, where there are statewide contracts.
