The purchase of two All Wheel Drive vehicles for the Chillicothe Police Department was approved in a special meeting of the City Council. Chief Jon Maples says the department will receive one vehicle immediately, but the other will take 3-4 months for delivery. The Council approved the purchase of a 2023 Dodge Durango and a 2021 Ford Explorer from Woody’s.
The Durango is a six-cylinder vehicle that cost $39,626. The Explorer is similar to the department’s current vehicles. The cost after a $7,000 trade-in is $38,287.
The trade-in is a 2017 Explorer
