ITEM SUMMARY:
For FY 2026, Police and Public Works Department staff planned and budgeted for the replacement of six
existing 2021 Ford Explorer Interceptors patrol vehicles (Units 310, 311, 312, 313, 314, and 316) with
2026 Ford Utility Police Interceptor AWD Explorers.
The City participates in the Northwest Municipal Conference Suburban Purchasing Cooperative (SPC)
and Sourcewell cooperative purchasing programs. Sutton Ford of Matteson, Illinois currently has the
Sourcewell contract while the SPC contract is with Currie Motors of Frankfort, Illinois. Staff also solicited a
quote from a local dealer, Haggerty Ford. The following quotes were received:
Dealer Price per vehicle Rank
Currie Motors (Frankfort) | $49,175.00 1
Haggerty (West Chicago) $49,351.00 2
Sutton Ford (Matteson) $52,330.00 3
Based on comparable pricing received and per the local vendor preference policy approved by the City
Council under Resolution 12-R-0009, in which purchases of goods and services can be awarded to local
vendors when their pricing is within three percent (3%) of other competitive bids, staff recommends
ordering the six 2026 Ford Utility Police Interceptor AWD Explorers vehicles for the Police Department
from Haggerty Ford in West Chicago, Illinois, for an amount not to exceed $296,106.00 ($49,351.00
each).
Vehicles will be purchased from the Capital Equipment Replacement Fund (04-34-39-4804) in which
$294,000.00 has been budgeted in FY 2026 for these replacement vehicles. An additional $90,000.00 is
budgeted in FY 2026 for necessary appurtenances/equipment (i.e., lights, sirens, decals, radios,
computers, protective screens/cages, etc.) that will be installed by a third party after the City takes
delivery of the units (estimated to cost an additional $15,000.00 per vehicle). The total estimated cost for
vehicles and equipment is $386,106. The FY 2026 budget includes $384,000, and the remaining $2,106
will be supplemented by the Drug Asset Forfeiture Fund.
