Clearwater, FL Flock Contract

Who approved this?

Approved on the consent agenda, without discussion, by Clearwater City Council on January 20, 2022.

Clearwater City Council approved item ID 21-10071 on January 20, 2022 as part of the consent agenda. The item authorized an agreement with Flock Safety of Atlanta, Georgia for license plate reader equipment, monitoring and maintenance in an amount not to exceed 200,000 dollars. The council set the term at four calendar years running from the execution date, and the record never prints that execution date. Council members Frank Hibbard, Hoyt Hamilton, David Allbritton and Kathleen Beckman are recorded voting aye, and the vote record shows no dissent. The city bought the service as a single source purchase under City Code of Ordinances Section 2.563(1)(a). The Legistar record carries no camera count, no retention period and no audit or reporting condition. Status is set to Expired because the four year term began no later than early 2022 and Clearwater Legistar holds no renewal item under a Flock title. That is an inference from the term printed on the approved document rather than a filed expiry notice, and it is named here as such.
