INITIATING PROBLEM ISSUE, OPPORTUNIN (WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHI�
The deparhnent has been collecting a twenty dollar ($20) refundable deposit for admission to auctions. This deposit is returned when the
person leaves the auction or is applied to the purchase price of a vehicle. This process requires up to two clerks to process these
transacrions for approxunately four hows at each auction. Many people who currently attend aze just curious and not serious bidders.
The depariment has also contracted with a professional auctioneer which has produced more efficient and businesslike auctions.
It is anticipated implementation of this action will generate approximately $16,200 annually. Funds generated would be deposited in the
Impound Lot Fund (24050).
ADVANTAGESIFAPPROVED

and returning a twenty dollar ($20) deposit, increase efficiency in conducting motor vehicle auctions; help inswe attendance of mare
serious and bonafide bidders, and finance the services of the auctioneer. The Minneapolis Impound Lot currently chazges a five dollar
($5) admission fee to their eneral ublic motor vehicle aucrions.
DISADVANTAGES IF APPROVED
None anticipated.
DISADVANTAGES IF NOTAPPROVED
It will be more difficult for the Deparhnent to increase efficiency, create a more businesslike atmosphere, and finance the services of the
auctioneer. .� � ,
