The Ottawa City Council approved two agreements involving vehicles for the Police Department during their meeting on Tuesday night.

Commissioner Tom Ganiere said Ottawa will lease a new detective vehicle from Bill Walsh Automotive Group under the same terms as past leases.

The one-year agreement runs from Oct. 1, 2025, through Sept. 30, 2026, for $600 per vehicle per month, or $1,200 total. The city can also pay the full $14,400 up front for the year, according to city documents.

Council members also approved buying a new replacement squad car, a 2025 Ford Utility Interceptor, from Terry’s Ford in Peotone for $45,924.

Ganiere said the new vehicle will replace a squad car that was wrecked, with insurance covering nearly the entire cost.
