DISTRIBUTION OF SURPLUS
COMPUTER EQUIPMENT
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends Council adopt Resolution No. 99-m approving the
allocation of surplus computers to the public schools within the city li’mits of Carlsbad.
ITEM EXPLANATION
Since 1996, the City Council has distributed surplus computer equipment to local
non-profit organizations and to schools located within the city limits of Carlsbad. On
April 6, 1999, the City Council directed the staff to distribute eight surplus computer
equipment to the Senior Center, 75% of the remaining equipment distributed to the
Carlsbad Education Foundation and their “Kids Are Worth A Million” Project, and the
remaining 25% to be divided to the other public schools within the City limits based
on their percentage of Carlsbad students. Staff was also directed to return with
documents establishing an allocation method for future distribution of surplus
computer equipment.
In an effort to distribute the surplus computer equipment equitably on an on-going
basis, it is recommended that surplus computer equipment be allocated to the public
schools located in Carlsbad. The allocation of equipment to schools outside the
Carlsbad Unified School District would be based on the number of Carlsbad
residents attending these schools. At the present time, there are eleven schools in
the Carlsbad Unified School District, one in San Marcos School District, three in
Encinitas School District, and one in San Diegueto School District. An example of the
present distribution of students is shown below

City Council for their consideration.
FISCAL IMPACT
Personal Computers with monitors and keyboards average $250.00. The printers
average value is $200.00. Surplus Central Processing Units range from $30 - $300
