20. ACCEPT DONATION OF USED OFFICE FURNITURE, EQUIPMENT, AND SUPPLIES FROM THE STATE OF ARIZONA FOR THE OFFICE OF THE PUBLIC ADVOCATE'S CAPITAL POST-CONVICTION RELIEF UNIT Approve the acceptance of a donation of used office furniture, equipment, and supplies from the State of Arizona to the Maricopa County Office of the Public Advocate, Capital Post-Conviction Relief (PCR) Unit. The estimated value of the furniture and supplies is less than $6,000, and there are no costs associated with this donation. The State’s Capital Post-Conviction Relief Office was eliminated effective July 1, 2012. The majority of the staff that belonged to that office have been hired by the Maricopa County Office of the Public Advocate. The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors has already approved a lease for office space at 3443 N. Central in Phoenix. That lease allowed the unit to continue to be housed in the location where they were located when part of the State. The State wishes to donate all furniture, equipment, and supplies at the location to the Maricopa County Office of the Public Advocate. (C-57-13-001-D-00)
