The Lantana Police Department will be getting two 2013 vehicles this year — a Dodge Charger pursuit car and a Chevy Tahoe 1500.
Total cost for the vehicles is $47,971 — $21,401 for the Dodge, $26,570 for the Tahoe. Another $36,702 will be spent for painting and adding police decals and emergency lights, radio, graphics and video equipment to the cars.
At its Dec. 10 meeting, the Town Council also gave the  thumbs-up for the Police Department to buy a backup generator for $37,650.
The old generator needs repairs, and parts are not available. The town will spend another $3,350 to hook up and install the generator.
Money for both cars and the generator had been set aside in the budget.
