SUBJECT:  Motion Authorizing the Sale of Port Personal Property by the Chief Executive
Officer in 2015 
ACTION REQUESTED 
Request Commission renewal for 2015, by motion, of authorization for the Chief Executive 
Officer to sell and convey Port District personal property of $18,000 or less in value in
accordance with RCW 53.08.090(2) and Section 18 of Resolution No. 3605, as amended by
Resolution No. 3628. 
SYNOPSIS 
Pursuant to RCW 53.08.090(2), the Commission may, by resolution renewed from year to year,
authorize the managing officer of a port district to sell and convey port district personal property
of $10,000 or less in value. RCW 53.08.090(2) requires yearly adjustment of the $10,000 limit
based on the governmental price index. Such adjustment results in an $18,000 limit for 2015,
unchanged from 2014. Section 18 of Resolution No. 3605, as amended, provides that the annual
renewal of the Chief Executive Officer's authority may be accomplished by motion. It is now the
appropriate time for the Commission to renew the Chief Executive Officer's authority for the
year 2015.
