All, is there a statutory provision that permits a municipality to transfer
surplus property to another municipality for free or at a price other than
fair market value? I believe the state can do that for counties and
municipalities but I am not aware of a like provision for municipal
transfers. The subject property has more than a de minimis value. Thank
you.

Tom, we’ve worked to accomplish this by executing a contract that provides for mutual cooperation in exchange for the goods.
For example, one of the municipal volunteer fire departments I work with had some radios that they wanted to transfer to another volunteer department to use. We developed an agreement whereby the receiving department would render aid to the transferring department in exchange for the radios.

Thank you, Kim. That is exactly what I had in mind to satisfy the
consideration and public purpose requirements.

I did something similar to Kim, but with regard to SCBA's from a paid FD
that the Chief wanted to transfer to a Volunteer FD. Same type of deal *- *in
exchange for City giving you these things the Town VFD agrees to render aid
to the City at City's request.
