Vermont Business Magazine The Department of Buildings and General Services (BGS) has announced the commencement of online auctions offering a large assortment of State vehicles and equipment. BGS administers the State’s Surplus Property Program which receives and redistributes items no longer needed by the State such as office furniture, computer equipment, vehicles, and hundreds of other items. The auctions are an excellent opportunity for Vermont communities and others throughout New England to obtain a good deal on a vehicle or piece of equipment. Access to the auction system is facilitated by Auctions International.
During the pandemic, auctions were suspended to comply with health and safety requirements.

New London A controversial military vehicle acquired by the New London Police Department last year and rejected by the City Council has found a new home in New York.
The Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle, also known as an MRAP or Cougar, is expected to be picked up within the next week and makes its way to the eastern end of Lake Ontario, in Oswego, N.Y.
The Oswego County Sheriff’s Office, which already owns one, is accepting the free heavily armored vehicle for use by its emergency services unit, or SWAT team, for responses to things like active shooter or hostage situations.
