(A) Before selling any unclaimed or surplus property, the City Manager shall post two notices of the sale, one at the county courthouse and the other at City Hall, and shall cause a copy of the notice of public sale to be published in the official newspaper of the city at least 21 days before the date of the sale. The notice of the sale shall describe the property, and designate the time, date, and place of sale.
(B) The City Manager, or such person as may be designated by him or her, shall conduct the public auction, at which such property is to be sold to the highest bidder. An accurate statement of each piece of property sold, the sale price, and the name and address of the bidder shall also be kept. He shall provide a copy of such report to the City Secretary as soon as possible after the close of sale. A bill of sale of the property shall be executed by the city to the purchaser.
