Body
WHEREAS, the Saint Paul Fire Department has 500-800 gallons of old foam that is no longer needed for fire department purposes, and

RESOLVED, that the City Council finds that it is in the best interests of the City to donate the foam and save the cost of disposal, and hereby authorizes the donation of the above described obsolete property to Magellan Midstream Partners; and be it
FURTHER RESOLVED, that said organization shall take responsibility for removing obsolete property from City premises in a manner and in accordance with the time line mutually agreed upon with the Saint Paul Fire Department and shall bear all costs associated with the removal and transportation of the designated obsolete property and agrees to accept the property as is; and be it
FINALLY RESOLVED, that upon the donation, the City shall have no further responsibility for said property and shall not provide any warranty, maintenance, repair, technical assistance, or any other kind of ongoing support, nor assume any cost that may be related to the ongoing use of the property by Magellan Midstream Partners.
