90w-
935 1757131
and notify the owner or person entitled to possession thereof,
and shall return the property after such owner or person
provides reasonable and satisfactory proof of ownership or
right to possession and reimburses the Sheriff for all
reasonable expenses of such custody and handling.
(A) All property shall be deemed unclaimed when, after
30 days of notification, the owner shall have failed to
recover the property from the Custodian.
Section 7 . RECOVERY OF PROPERTY - LIMITATION: The owner or person
entitled to possession of the property may claim and recover
possession of the property at any time before a sale at public
auction upon providing reasonable and satisfactory proof of
ownership or right to possession and after reimbursing the
Sheriff for all reasonable expenses of custody and handling
thereof.
Section 8 . SALE OF UNCLAIMED PROPERTY: If the identity or location
of the owner or person entitled to possession of the property
has not been ascertained within 90 days ,or six (6) months in
the case of property believed to be stolen or otherwise
illegally possessed, after the Custodian obtains possession of
the property, the Sheriff or his designated representative may
effectuate the sale of such property for cash to the highest
bidder, at a public auction, notice of which (including time,
place and a brief description of such property) shall be
published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation

(A) If the Sheriff finds that such property may be used
by his department in the performance of his duties , such property
may be utilized by the Sheriff' s department until such time as
it is no longer needed, and then disposed of as provided herein,
provided the Sheriff has the approval of the Board of County
Commissioners as set forth in Section 11. The Sheriff shall
provide the Board of County Commissioners with a list of all
property so utilized, as provided in Section 11.
(B) It being in the public interest, to restrict the
flow of firearms, all unclaimed firearms which the Sheriff finds
-2-

</- 3
cannot be utilized in the performance of the duties
of his department, shall be either abandoned to the United
States Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms , sold at
a Sheriff ' s sale to persons licensed to sell firearms or
destroyed.
(C) Unclaimed property of no value shall be held for
90 days and if still unclaimed, the Sheriff may either
destroy or otherwise dispose of said property without
placing it for sale.
Section 9 . CONDUCT OF AUCTION: At the time and place mentioned in
said notice for the sale of unclaimed property, it shall be the
duty of the Sheriff to sell all such unclaimed property at
public auction for the highest and best price the same will
bring in cash, and to receive from the purchaser of each and
every article, the amount paid by such purchaser for the same.
Provided, however, that unclaimed property consisting of jewelry,
gems, watches, precious metals or other property having unique
value, may, in the judgment of the Sheriff , be sold either at
auction or to the highest bidder after solicitation of sealed
bids from at least three regular dealers in the particular
type of property.
Section 10. REPORT TO THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS : When such
sale is completed, it shall be the duty of the Sheriff to make
a report to the Board of County Commissioners , giving in detail,
a description of the articles so sold and the amount of money
received for each of said articles , and at the same time to
turn over to the Board of County Commissioners for deposit in
the general fund, all money which has come into his hands as
the proceeds of such sale.
Section 11. PROPERTY UNLAWFUL TO POSSESS: If it shall be unlawful for
any private citizen to possess any such personal property, then
that personal property shall not be placed for auction, but
shall either be destroyed, or if feasible, used by the Sheriff,
but only if usable by the Sheriff to carry out the normal
duties and responsibilities of his office. If the Sheriff wishes
to convert any such property to the use of his office, or any
unclaimed, abandoned, or lost property received by the

Custodian, then he must have the express authorization of the
Board of County Commissioners to do so in each and every instance.
Section 12. PERISHABLE PROPERTY: If any property so seized or taken
possession of by the Sheriff shall be of a perishable nature or
so bulky or of such a nature as to make it dangerous or un-
desirable to retain possession thereof, the Sheriff shall cause
such property to be forthwith, advertised in the official news-
paper and sell such property any time after three days shall
have elapsed from the seizure or the taking possession thereof;
except where impractical to do so, in which case the Sheriff
shall use his best judgment in disposing of the property.

sioners of Weld County, Colorado that the above provisions in the
