Committee recommends preordering Ford interceptor to replace 2020 patrol vehicle
Summary
Chief Kraft asked the committee to authorize preordering a Ford Police Interceptor to replace a 2020 patrol vehicle ahead of the FY26‑27 budget approval window; Clerk/Treasurer Chamberlin said no budget issues were anticipated and the committee moved to recommend approval.
Chief Kraft told the Public Safety Committee the local Ford dealership’s fleet order window will open in May and the department needs authorization to preorder a Ford Police Interceptor to replace a 2020 patrol vehicle per the FY26‑27 replacement schedule. He said the length of the dealer’s order window is not known, which is why he sought approval before final budget adoption.
Clerk/Treasurer Chamberlin told the committee she anticipates no issues with the department’s replacement schedule and recommended approval. A motion was made to recommend approval for ordering the Ford Police Interceptor outside of the budget‑approval timing; the minutes do not record the mover or a separate roll‑call vote for this motion.
