Approved 4-0 by Crossville City Council on December 13, 2022.
The Crossville City Council approved the purchase of a license plate reader camera system on December 13, 2022, and the roll call ran 4 to 0 in favor. Council member Scot Shanks made the motion, and the item carried as recommended after a December 6, 2022 work session sent it forward. The only document attached to file 22-0382 in the city Legistar record is titled FLOCK Crossville Quote, which fixes the vendor as Flock Safety. The Crossville Chronicle reported that $25,000 was set aside in the 2022-23 city budget for the installation, and Police Chief Jessie Brooks framed the system as added coverage for a small road patrol. By September 2026 the city ran 10 Flock cameras and residents were pressing the council at a work session to remove them.
