Approved 7-0 by Apache Junction City Council on June 20, 2023.
The Apache Junction City Council approved a five year master services and license agreement with Flock Group Inc on June 20, 2023 in an amount of 315,500 dollars, carried as file 23-337. The roll call was 7 to 0, with Mayor Chip Wilson, Vice Mayor Robert Schroeder and Councilmembers Theresa Nesser, Peter Heck, Bambi Johnson, Darryl Cross and Bryan Soller all voting yes. That agreement followed an earlier two year deal with Flock, LLC that the council passed on May 3, 2022 as file 22-296, capped at 80,350 dollars, with year one covered by a 15,000 dollar Arizona State Vehicle Theft Task Force grant and 27,800 dollars from the General Fund. The 2022 vote was 4 to 1, with Robert Schroeder against. The figure shown is the 315,500 dollar whole term amount because the 2023 item prints it as the agreement amount. Neither Legistar record states a camera count, an effective date or a retention period. Police Chief Michael Pooley told the council at a September 1, 2026 public hearing that records not tied to an investigation are held 30 days, and Vice Mayor Schroeder asked whether that could drop to 7 days. The council placed file 26-465 on a work session for September 14, 2026 to revisit the program.
