The Doña Ana County Board of County Commissioners approved item 12 on June 9, 2026, authorizing use of New Mexico State Pricing Agreement 30-00000-22-00018 with Flock Group Inc. for license plate reader cameras and annual subscription services in the amount of $162,000. Chair Manuel Sanchez moved and Commissioner Christopher Schaljo-Hernandez seconded, and the minutes record the motion passing 4 to 0 with Vice-Chair Gloria Gameros absent. Sheriff Kim Stewart presented the item. KFOX reported that the money covers the yearly subscription plus 22 new cameras on top of roughly 30 the county already runs, and that the cost sat inside the sheriff's budget the commission had already adopted. Lt. Eric Flores said the county folded its separate Flock agreements into one contract. The minutes do not state a term length or an end date.
