Approved 4-0 by Powder Springs City Council on June 17, 2024.

Powder Springs City Council approved Resolution 24-088 on June 17, 2024, authorizing the mayor to sign an agreement for 12 Flock cameras and the camera system for public safety at $30,000 a year. Council Member Doris Dawkins moved and Mayor Pro Tem Dwight McMutry seconded, and the roll call recorded 4 yes votes, with Council Member Patricia Wisdom marked remote and Mayor Al Thurman marked non-voting. The signed Flock Safety order form for the Powder Springs Police Department lists 12 Falcon license plate reader cameras, a 48 month term running May 13, 2024 to May 12, 2028, billing annually at net 30, and a total contract value of $120,000. The city file notes say the $30,000 yearly cost is budgeted in the police department. Council came back on October 21, 2024 with Resolution 24-151, which put every city owned Flock camera on one contract for simpler payment and locked the rate at $2,500 per camera per year through May 12, 2028. The resolution title from June says 5 one-year terms, while the executed order form and the file notes both say 4 years and $120,000.
