Community Development Director Jeff Harris reviewed the special use request for the use of 2,000 sq. ft. of a 6-unit 12,000 sq. ft. building in 4-B Industrial Park. It was a former auto body and repair shop. The petitioner plans to operate a repair business customizing in suspension work, including installing lifting and lowering features on vehicles. He plans to expand in the future to include custom interior work. The Planning and Zoning Board heard this petition and recommended approval with three conditions: 1. The use of the subject property shall be in substantial compliance with the floor plan on file; 2. All vehicles awaiting repair, in the process of being repaired, or having been repaired shall not be parked outside of the building for a period in excess of 24 hours; and 3.

PUBLIC SAFETY – Trustee Schmidt/Trustee Harper

A-22-093 Motion – Waive Competitive Bidding and Purchase of a 2022 Ford Police Vehicle

Request the Board waive competitive bidding and approve the purchase of a 2022 Ford Interceptor Utility Police Vehicle from Currie Motors of Frankfort, Illinois at a cost of approximately $48,523.00. This Motion waives competitive bidding and approves the purchase of one front-line 2022 Ford Interceptor Police Vehicle originally scheduled for replacement in 2023. Funds for this purchase are available in the 2022 Equipment Replacement Fund.

Trustee Schmidt presented the Motion and moved for approval. Trustee Cecille seconded the motion. Police Chief Daryl Syre stated this replacement is for a very heavily used front-line police vehicle. Supply chain issues have made it almost impossible to get any vehicles; the two vehicles ordered in January may or may not ever be produced or delivered. This one available vehicle is fully upfitted similar to what we would do when we receive the “bare bones” vehicles, and the cost is comparable for our overall anticipated cost. Five vehicles were deferred in 2022, and the one vehicle in question currently has the equivalent of 660,000 miles and is starting to have major maintenance issues. Trustee Schmidt asked about the use of hybrid or electric vehicles. Chief Syre noted the two ordered in January are hybrid, but they haven’t been produced. ROLL CALL:
