Council OKs three-year single-source contract with Chicago Metropolitan Fire Protection
Summary
Council adopted Resolution R-2026-61 to enter Agreement No. 630 with Chicago Metropolitan Fire Protection Company for wireless alarm network management, maintenance and servicing for up to $180,000 over three years (about $60,000 annually); staff said the vendor has provided services since 2010 and annual costs align with budget.
The Wheaton City Council unanimously adopted Resolution R-2026-61 on Aug. 3, authorizing a single-source procurement and execution of Agreement No. 630 with Chicago Metropolitan Fire Protection Company for management, maintenance and servicing of the city’s wireless alarm network for a total amount not to exceed $180,000.
City Manager Raymond Munch said the Fire Department recommended a three-year agreement and that Chicago Metropolitan Fire Protection "has been a trusted vendor since 2010." He added the annual cost of $60,000 aligns with budget allocations and is offset by alarm-monitoring fees contributed by program participants.
Councilmembers voted in favor after staff described vendor qualifications and budget alignment; the resolution authorizes staff to execute the agreement and proceed with the service contract.
