Committee approves RFP for three 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe pursuit vehicles

Stephenson County Committee (budget/finance meeting) · August 12, 2026

Summary

The county committee approved a request for proposals to buy three 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe police‑pursuit vehicles. The RFP sets bids due Sept. 16 and was approved after a brief discussion about replacement needs and timing.

The committee voted to approve a request for proposals (RFP) seeking three 2026 Chevrolet Tahoe police‑pursuit vehicles from authorized Chevrolet dealers.

The law enforcement presenter told the committee, “We're going out for request for proposal for 3 new 2026 Chevy Tahoe police pursuit, vehicles, from the authorized Chevrolet dealers.” Bids were set to be received by 3 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 16, and opened the day before the full county board meeting so the board could act on the awards.

A committee member moved to approve the RFP and another member seconded. The chair called for the voice vote and members answered 'Aye,' recording the motion as carried.

County officials said the three vehicles are replacements from last year's supplemental request and not additions to the fleet; the presenter explained two vehicles were lost this year and that replacing earlier Tahoes will extend the replacement cycle by two to three years. No purchase contract or vendor was selected at the meeting; procurement will proceed through the RFP process and bids will be publicly opened on the noted date.

The presentation did not include a total procurement price; the committee directed staff to bring award recommendations back to the county board after bids are opened.
