BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS
The Board of Commissioners of New Hanover County hereby resolves:
WHEREAS, transportation is a major barrier for Work First clients of the Department of
Social Services; and
WHEREAS, existing public transportation is often insufficient to address the work and
daycare needs of Work First individuals for whom the lack of adequate transportation poses a
significant barrier to gainful employment; and
WHEREAS, the County desires to facilitate arrangements so as to assist non-profit
group(s) in providing used donated vehicles to Work First clients; and
WHEREAS, eligible Work First clients would sign promissory notes to cover the cost of
insurance, car outfitting, title and tags; and
WHEREAS, the County anticipates entering into an arrangement with Engine Angels, a
non-profit corporation, to receive vehicle donations and convey title to eligible recipients, with
Engine Angels and Cape Fear Community College performing necessary repairs; and
WHEREAS, donation of reparable County surplus vehicles will promote program objective
by helping build an inventory of vehicles for distributiono
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of Commissioners of New Hanover
County that reparable vehicles designated as surplus in the ordinary course of County disposition
of personal property be made available without cost to Engine Angels, County staff is authorized
to convey title upon securing the Board of Commissioners' authorization for disposition of
specified vehicles. Following transfer, vehicles capable of being made operational in a cost
efficient manner will be transferred to low income families in need of employment transportation.
Should what was anticipated to be a "reparable" vehicle not be capable of being made operational
in a cost efficient manner, the surplus vehicles may be sold by Engine Angels, with that non-profit
retaining the proceeds for program purposes. Upon approval of the New Hanover County
Property Management Director, surplus vehicles conveyed to Engine Angels may be stored on
County property until readied for distribution.
