Strongsville, OH Flock Contract

Active

Who approved this?

Approved by City Council on January 16, 2024.

Strongsville City Council approved the purchase of a Flock reader system on January 16, 2024, according to council documents cited by Cleveland 19 News. The initial agreement covered 19 readers on a 24-month term, itemized by cleveland.com as $72,250 in the first year and $63,500 recurring, which totals $135,750. Cleveland 19 News reported the figure as $163,750 for the same 19 cameras; the amount shown is $135,750 because that total matches the itemized annual charges. The initial mix was 15 Falcon readers, 1 Falcon Flex and 3 long-range readers, and the package included $8,750 in one-time implementation costs. The ordinance describes the system as necessary for the immediate preservation of public peace, property, health, safety and welfare. Council approved an expansion in November 2025 adding 6 readers for $54,900 on a three-year term, taking the network to 25 readers across roughly 25 square miles. The amount and camera count shown are the January 2024 pair, so the cost per camera stays on one agreement.
