Generated from normalized transcript text using deterministic pattern matching.

This document surfaces candidate evidence lines only. It does not prove absence, verify claims, resolve disputes, interpret intent, or produce the final civic record.

Public-comment content is not extracted in this deterministic signal pass because comment boundaries are transcript-dependent and better handled by the downstream record-generation pass.

Use these signals as review scaffolding for a later record-generation pass, not as authoritative meeting minutes.

| $139,680 | Bob Maxey quoted the price for a 2025 Ford Interceptor at $46,560. Bob Maxey Ford did not give trade-in values for the four older squads that need to be traded in. The cost for the three new squad cars would be $139,680. |
| $170,000 | Anyone else before Alderman Stacey's second, Alderman Stacey. So I'm trusting that your department have this money, that you budget it for three. We budgeted $170,000. |
| $8,000 | I think the Land Bank is kind of a good idea. One thing that was never discussed on the Land Bank was the fact that $8,000 was the bid. Was that $8,000 to fix the property or just a down payment? |

## Civic Object Signals

| Type | Evidence |
|---|---|
| Procurement Reference | And now it's appeared on here with information said that we had a bid opening and we've received two bids for something that was not authorized for spending of money not by the Council. |
| Procurement Reference | This has been discussed, it's been requested, so we have an issue with the way the bid worked out and we're asking to remove it from the agenda. |
| Procurement Reference | There's nothing been approved for the bid. |
| Procurement Reference | It was just, it's in the budget to get a bid. |
| Procurement Reference | Ultimately right now it's coming before you if you guys don't want it's for the council to decide do you want to expend the money you got to bid to do these two things there if you don't want to approve it then as Darren said you can vote to say no. |
| Procurement Reference | Because we have an issue with the bid. |
| Procurement Reference | Once we remove it though it will come back for discussion not right am I correct correct so if they want to approve any bid it will have to come back to you guys which that's the normal procedure it's a bid you can Darren so we can only hold this bid for 30 days so once if it... |

| Grant / Program Reference | When planning for the initial rollout of the grant, staff was aware that TASER 10 required a four-year certification plan with Axon that included additional costs to cover the certification of TASER 10, as well as training for Freeport Police Department TASER and structures an... |
| Grant / Program Reference | Staff spoke to the ILEAS representative for the Freeport Police Department and was told at that time that the grant would cover all the costs associated with the devices and suggested applying for the TASER 10 grant. |
| Grant / Program Reference | On October 1st, 2024, the Freeport Police Department was awarded five TASER 10 bundles and the resolution was presented to this council and passed on October 7th, 2024 to accept that grant. |
