Approved 4-1 by Temecula City Council on December 12, 2023.
Temecula City Council adopted item AR-23-567, a five year agreement for license plate recognition with Flock Group Inc, on December 12, 2023. The motion came from James Stewart and was seconded by Zak Schwank. The roll call shows Curtis Brown, Brenden Kalfus, James Stewart and Zak Schwank voting aye and Jessica Alexander voting nay. The action text on the same history record describes a 5 to 0 approval of the staff recommendation, which conflicts with the recorded roll call of 4 ayes and 1 nay. Both figures are named, and the member by member roll call is the one used because it identifies each vote. No dollar figure, camera count, funding source or retention period appears in the Legistar record, and the agreement and agenda report attachments sit on a host that refuses retrieval. The 5 year term is printed in the item title, so the term is 60 months, but no start date or end date is stated.
