Public auctions are the last step in the state's surplus program.
Stateagencies declare property as surplus because it is damaged or at the endof its life cycle for governmental usage. The property is then made availableto other state agencies, state colleges and universities, tax-supportedagencies, municipal corporations, and other political subdivisions of thestate, including public schools. Remaining property is sold at the publicauctions.
