Local Government Fleet and Heavy Equipment Sales
Local governments (cities, counties, school districts, special districts, etc.) can request the state of Oregon sell their fleet and heavy equipment. An Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) must be completed in order to do this. The IGA contains specific language as to the local government's responsibilities, as well as those of the state.

Local Governments Purchasing Surplus Property
Whether purchasing state or federal property from the Surplus Property program, an agency must first complete an eligibility application packet. This process is used to assign certain individuals within an agency to be "Authorized Signers," and provides for billing information about an agency. Eligibility, once approved, is good for three years.
