Sheriff Mark Schrader signed a contract with Flock Group Inc on November 21, 2025 covering 2 license plate reader cameras in Chattooga County, Georgia. AllOnGeorgia reported the terms as $7,300 in year 1, which includes a $1,300 implementation fee, then $6,000 a year after that, for $13,300 across a 24 month initial term that renews unless either party gives 30 days notice. The sheriff paid from asset forfeiture money rather than county tax revenue. No county commission vote on the contract is recorded, and the sheriff executed the agreement on his own authority. Schrader also approved Policy Chapter 22.1, effective June 26, 2026, which sets search protocols and audit requirements for the system.
