Liberty Township auctions off equipment, evidence

LIBERTY — Township officials spent the day cleaning house and offering a few sweet deals to area residents.

The township had the first of what officials hope will be an annual auction of surplus equipment and other items kept in storage at the government center. Some of the items had been there for up to seven years.

Dozens of prospective buyers gathered in the parking lot to the rear of the township administration building today with numbered bidding cards in hand.

Up for grabs were seven township vehicles, confiscated jewelry, new clothing, furniture, used electronics and power tools. There was even the leftover lights and power supply from a marijuana-growing operation busted up by township police.

Auctions by Ulrich conducted the bidding process.
