R-42-25 Authorizing the Order and Purchase of Police Vehicles413 Main Street ( Lemont, IL 60439
TO: Village Board Meeting
FROM: Judy Radomski, Police Department
THROUGH:
SUBJECT: A Resolution Authorizing the Order and Purchase of Police Vehicles
DATE: June 23, 2025
SUMMARY/BACKGROUND
As part of the multi -year capital plan, the Police Department is scheduled to purchase four (4)
new Ford SUV Interceptor Police utility vehicles to replace a portion of the current fleet as part
of the FY26 budget. Willowbrook Ford is the low bidder for the purchase of the vehicles. This
estimate does not include the trade-in values, vehicle build -out, equipment installation, or
extended warranties.
ANALYSIS
The purchase of four (4) new Ford SUV Interceptors would replace an aging portion of the
fleet and lower repair costs during the future. Any vehicles deemed as trade-ins will have
outlived their useful life.
The Police Department was able to obtain Government Pricing from Willowbrook Ford, Inc.,
same as the Suburban Purchasing Cooperative.
I recommend Willowbrook Ford as the vendor for the transaction.
Consistency with Village Policy
5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (if applicable)
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends authorization to purchase four (4) Ford SUV Interceptors from Willowbrook
Ford.
BOARD ACTION REQUESTED
Authorization to proceed with the purchase of four (4) Ford SUV Interceptors from Willowbrook
Ford
