Briefly In Education: Council approves equipment donations

Laguna Beach will donate its old computer equipment to the Laguna Beach Unified School District or Boys & Girls Club.

The City Council authorized the director of finance and information technology to move forward with the item during Tuesday’s City Council meeting.

The city has had inquiries about its used computer equipment from the information technology department at the school district, which would like five computers that the city was intending to dispose of, according to a staff report.

Previously, the city would send equipment that still worked to auction or nonfunctional items to a recycling center.
