Official text

To the Honorable City Council: The Mayor respectfully requests that this Council, under the provisions of M.G.L. c. 30B § 15, authorize the Mayor or her designee to dispose of a tangible supply, having resale or salvage value, at less than fair market value to a charitable organization which has received a tax exemption from the United States by reason of its charitable nature. The purpose of this vote is to authorize the City of Somerville to donate to a charitable organization, or otherwise dispose of bicycles previously noticed and deemed to be abandoned. Appropriate staff will be available to answer any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this matter. Respectfully, Katjana Ballantyne, Mayor
