Who approved this?
Approved on the consent agenda, without discussion, by Murrieta City Council on September 16, 2025.
The Murrieta City Council approved file 25-1596 as item 6 on the consent calendar at its regular meeting on September 16, 2025. The action authorizes the purchase of new Flock cameras from Flock Group, Inc. for California Oaks Sports Park and Torrey Pines Park, along with budget amendments for fiscal years 2025/26 and 2026/27. Council Member Holliday moved approval of consent items 1 through 11 and Council Member DeForest seconded, and the motion passed with 5 ayes, 0 noes and no absences. The minutes list council members by surname only, so the roll call here carries surnames. The agenda and the minutes name no dollar amount, no camera count and no contract term, and the staff report attachment was not published with the agenda text. Neither record states a retention period, an audit requirement, a sharing restriction or a reporting duty. An earlier Murrieta Police Department update to the council dated November 2, 2021 described a 10 camera first year at 25,000 dollars a year with data held no longer than 30 days, but that document covers the original citywide program rather than the two parks approved in 2025.
