The Urbana Police Department will be purchasing a new fleet of squad cars after July 1, 2018.

We are seeking a qualified company to install graphics on the new fleet. The graphics will be the same as the current fleet.

There will be a total of nine marked cars and three unmarked cars. The only graphics the unmarked cars will have are three-inch car numbers on the front and back along with the “Thin Blue Line” flag. The marked cars will not be changed.

To set up an appointment to inspect the current graphics or if you have any questions, please contact Lt. Jason Norton at the Urbana Police Department, 384-2320.

Bids should be received no later than May 18, 2018 at 5:00 p.m. Send to the attention of Lt. Jason Norton at the email address below.
