The Racine Common Council passed file 0449-22 on July 19, 2022 on a voice vote in consent, after the Finance and Personnel Committee recommended approval on July 11, 2022. The file, sponsored by Alder Taft, let the Police Department execute services agreement Contract 2022065 with Flock Group Inc. for Flock Falcon cameras. The fiscal note says funds were available in account 20307 57300 31065 and gives no dollar figure. A second file, 0448-22, cleared Contract 2022080 with Flock Group Inc. for Flock Safety Raven from account 45131 57300 on the same date. The council record lists no camera count, no term length and no retention, sharing, audit or reporting condition. In 2026 the council opened three related files: 0795-26 from Mayor Cory Mason on renegotiating or terminating the Flock system, 0772-26 from Alder Pabon on possible action on any Flock ordinance or contract, and 0789-26 from Alder Maack seeking a presentation, all listed as in committee. A separate 2026 file, 0316-26, for a three year 24,600 dollar Flock expansion on Byrd Avenue is marked rescind. TMJ4 reported on the three pending items and said Flock plate data is held 30 days.
