Flock contract endings: every outcome on the tracker

The remaining agreement costs $10,500 a year on a 3 year term that runs to February 2028. The department has kept one permanent Flock camera in the township plus a few cameras held at the station and deployed as needed. Thousands of Abington's Flock searches turned up in public data dumps, and the department audits officer search logs only as needed, with no set schedule. Fox 29 reported on August 27, 2026 that the Board of Commissioners voted to replace the Flock cameras with 2 Axon cameras in high crime areas, and that officials were looking for a way out of the Flock deal before 2028. Neither report gives a vote tally, a funding source or the names of the commissioners who voted. inquirer.com, August 19, 2026

ABC11 reported the cancellation vote and the Chatham Journal later printed the contract dates and the total. Neither outlet published a tally or named how each commissioner voted. The amount shown is the whole term total because the reporting names 66,700 dollars as the contract amount. Flock applies a default 30 day retention period, and the reporting says local agencies own their data and control sharing on an opt-in basis. The number of cameras the county itself ran is absent from both reports. The Town of Pittsboro's agreement for 9 cameras is a separate contract, not counted here. abc11.com, April 20, 2026

Council had earlier approved the Flock agreement unanimously at a February 6 meeting, at $219,000 over five years for 14 cameras, 13 along high traffic roads near the city borders and one uptown near parks. Oxford had already paid $48,000 for the current year and the contract ran to February 2027. Police Chief John Jones answered council questions at the August meeting. Residents objected that Flock is a private for profit company, with one saying the practice makes residents pre-criminals. The sources give no roll call for the original unanimous approval and do not confirm its year. oxfordobserver.org, February 7, 2026

Kim Roney voted to terminate and separately offered a failed motion for a moratorium on all automated license plate readers. Mayor Esther Manheimer had called for termination in a public statement before the vote. The contract was worth $72,000, began in 2025 and was set to run to January 31, 2027, covering 11 city cameras, while another 86 Flock cameras inside city limits belong to homeowners associations and the school system. Interim Police Chief Jackie Stepp wrote in an August 14, 2026 memo that Flock produced leads in a jewelry store robbery, a hit and run and the July 5 Maple Crest shooting. The city also operates 137 Axon plate readers on police vehicles. Neither source records when the council first approved the Flock contract or by what vote. bpr.org, August 21, 2026

Mayor Dave Fleisher announced the decision at the township council meeting held September 14, 2026. The cameras go inactive when the term ends and the vendor removes the hardware. Earlier Inquirer reporting on September 14, 2026 put the Cherry Hill system at 2.2 million alerts in a single year. No public record located so far names the body that approved the original contract or the dollar figure it carried. source

TMJ4 reported the agreement was already set to expire at the end of 2026. The department said a Flock representative offered to sell the city up to 5 years of anonymized driving pattern and speeding data drawn from Sheboygan own cameras, which the department treated as inconsistent with the contract. Zempel said the loss of trust made ending the relationship necessary and that the department is not actively shopping for a replacement. The dollar value of the agreement does not appear in the city statement, the council agenda or the coverage reviewed. # record, August 25, 2026

Each camera costs $3,000 a year to operate, a documented unit price rather than a stated contract total, so no total is recorded here. Rhoads said on September 8, 2026 that the department will not renew when the agreement ends on December 31, 2026. He said officers had used the system for 4 years without incident but the department could not persuade the public to trust it. Captain Ben Peters said Flock had advanced nearly every homicide case over the prior 2 to 3 years. Searches were limited to sergeants, lieutenants and administrators and barred for property crimes. wdbj7.com, May 20, 2026

WBEN reported on August 25, 2026 that the town has 12 Flock cameras and that the lease runs out at the end of 2026. The 2 camera counts differ; 13 is used because Investigative Post drew its figures from department records, and the 12 figure is noted. Town Supervisor John Flynn said the town is switching because Axon costs less than Flock and because of problems with Flock elsewhere, and he cited a Sheridan Drive bank robbery solved within 24 hours using the readers. The 45,000 dollars is reported spending since early 2025, not a stated contract value, so no contract amount is given. No vote date, tally or board member names for the switch appear in either report, and neither gives a retention period. investigativepost.org, July 17, 2026

Mayor Matthew Porter said the protections are just not there and are not required in the terms of the existing contract, and raised concerns about how the data is kept and shared. Assistant Police Chief Tommy Walters pointed to crimes solved with the system, including a 2026 murder investigation. Resident Austin Gregory organized a campaign that gathered more than 700 petition signatures. The council also voted to hold a workshop on any future Flock agreement if the safeguards change. Sources give the vote date as August 25, 26 and 27, 2026, so no single day is given, and none records the original council approval date or vote. CBS News, August 26, 2026

Cardinal News reported grant funding of $6,800 in 2024 and $6,000 in each of 2025 and 2026, and WDBJ7 reported the program was grant funded in full, so no county tax money went into it. The amount shown is the first year figure of $6,800, with the later years named here rather than averaged. Chief Deputy Scott Moye said policing in the 2020s requires the public's trust. The cameras are scheduled to come out on October 16, 2026. Christiansburg's council terminated its own Flock agreement in the same week. cardinalnews.org, August 28, 2026

Ball said residents raised concerns about privacy, government surveillance, who controlled the collected data, and possible misuse of the system by officers, and that those concerns outweighed the investigative benefit. He said the office will not replace the cameras with Axon equipment. Ball said losing the tool will hurt but that the office did good police work before Flock and will keep doing it afterward. The sources do not give the contract amount, the term length, the original approval date, the approving body, or any county commission vote, and they record no retention or audit condition. The end date shown is the first week of October 2026 that KRCG reported. kbia.org, August 21, 2026

The city ran 31 Flock cameras across Kenosha, first installed in 2023. Patton cited concerns about data sharing, security, access and misuse, and said the department had been given promises about security and about what the cameras could do and who was reaching the data. The department is moving to Axon Outpost readers that Kenosha police will own and operate directly, with a 30 day retention limit. Transition work began in January 2026 after a review of newer surveillance tools. No contract amount, term length or governing body vote appears in either source, and the Public Safety and Welfare Committee agenda for this item could not be retrieved, so no roll call is recorded and this entry rests on named news coverage. The end date shown is the 30 day mark from the September 3, 2026 notice. tmj4.com, September 3, 2026

Chairman Eric Hinson said the cameras solve a lot of crimes but that some residents raised privacy concerns. Commissioner Shawn Wood and Sheriff Morris Young also took part in the discussion. The Gadsden County Sheriff's Office operated the cameras. WTXL reported the vote and the annual figure, and Fox 49 reported the move to terminate. source

City Manager David Bolling said in August 2026 that the city would let the agreement run out in September 2026 without renewing it. Bolling said the benefit did not justify the cost, noting only a few instances where the cameras helped. Mayor Tim Neal said the money would do more good elsewhere in the police department. Officials framed the choice as financial rather than a response to the privacy fight running through Tennessee at the time. No record of a city council vote approving the 2024 signing was located. bbbtv12.com, August 21, 2026

Spectrum News reported that the sheriff's office signed with Flock in 2020 and ran 143 readers, while WVLT put the figure at about 140; the Spectrum count is used because it is the more specific number. Spectrum News reported a 1.5 million dollar state Violent Crime Intervention Fund grant approved in 2025, of which 800,000 dollars went toward camera expansion, so that figure is grant money applied to the program and not a stated contract value. WVLT reported that the sheriff's office had proposed adding 270 more cameras and that purchases were repeatedly written at 10 dollars under the 25,000 dollar threshold that would have triggered mayoral review. Then Mayor Glenn Jacobs said the multi year Flock agreement might be null and void because of those procurement problems. A public hearing on August 24, 2026 drew protesters, and roughly 100 residents attended the meeting where the ordinance passed. No individual commissioner vote record, contract amount or contract term length is documented in these sources. wvlt.tv, August 24, 2026

On August 12, 2026 the board voted 4 to 1 to issue a 180 day termination notice on Flock's right of way agreement, with Supervisor Stephen Miller casting the only no vote. Vice Chairman Jeff Serdy requested that agenda item and questioned who can reach the collected data, saying it is not elected people and not even sworn officers. The board first approved a Flock right of way agreement in August 2022 as a trial and extended it in September 2024 for five more years, through September 5, 2029. Neither source states the contract dollar amount, the camera count or the funding source. The decision covers unincorporated Pinal County only, and Casa Grande runs 93 cameras under a separate agreement. tucson.com, August 6, 2026

The program began in mid 2023 and cost roughly $20,000 a year, the approximate figure shown here. Levesque cited privacy and cost, and said his concerns revolve around privacy issues and security issues with being able to access some of this information without the right authorization. Officers shared data with nearby departments only on request and access was limited to a small group of detectives. No misconduct by Dartmouth officers has been reported in connection with the system. Residents raised objections at Select Board meetings, but no Select Board vote authorizing or ending the program has been published. newbedfordguide.com, September 1, 2026

Five Flock cameras in Duluth were stolen and one was damaged during the term. The department said it will keep using its own automated license plate recognition applications, describing the technology as already useful in solving significant crimes. It described the Flock devices as cameras built to identify vehicle details that may generate investigative leads, including plate, make, model and color. Neither source gives a camera count or a dollar figure for the Duluth contract. No council vote is recorded; the decision is reported as a department decision. fox21online.com, August 11, 2026

He also pointed to Flock's FreeForm feature, which allows plain language searches of the database, and said those features go beyond what most people would think of as a traditional license plate reader. WHDH reported on August 27, 2026 that the department will evaluate other public safety technology. The number of cameras and the annual price are not stated in any of the published reports, and no record of a town vote approving the original contract has surfaced. Boston.com, August 26, 2026

Hoodline reported on September 4, 2026 that Manor ran about 10 Flock cameras and that 2 were already out of service after vandalism; the count shown is 10. Hoodline reported that the cameras had helped locate three teenagers accused of a shooting spree in May 2026, and that the department still judged the technology too politically and legally difficult to keep running. The decision followed the order by Governor Greg Abbott in late August 2026 halting state money for Flock cameras, and followed the finding in Pflugerville that agencies without authorization had reached its license plate reader data. Neither report gives a contract value, a term length, a retention period, a funding source or a city council vote, and no council action is documented. news4sanantonio.com, September 3, 2026

Robinson obtained the hardware in August 2025 through a state grant from the Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention Authority and ran the system as a one year trial. KWTX reported on August 28, 2026 that the city leased 11 cameras, with 2 more on Highway 77 operated by the Texas Department of Public Safety. Mayor Greg May said before the vote that he would oppose renewal because tracking people who have done nothing wrong crosses a line. Council members pointed to resident feedback and to Governor Greg Abbott freezing the state money behind the cameras. One council member said a survey of more than 200 residents still showed majority support for keeping them. No source gives the contract amount, the renewal price, or any retention, audit or sharing condition. This is Robinson in McLennan County, Texas. kwtx.com, August 28, 2026

The board had announced on August 18, 2026 that it would take the vote, residents gathered at Town Hall for it, and 7 residents spoke. Ayer News reported that the police department had received a $25,000 grant to fund the Flock technology and that the department had planned to connect data only with other Massachusetts law enforcement agencies. Residents raised the Massachusetts case Commonwealth v. McCarthy and the wording of the contract during the discussion. Neither report names the individual Select Board members, the grant program, the contract amount, the number of cameras or the contract term. Boston.com, September 1, 2026

The city said it would not take part in any form of mass surveillance. The NEA Report listed a contract expiration of September 2027 without naming a day, so no end date is given. The Arkansas Advocate reported on August 19, 2026 that Mayflower was among at least six Arkansas cities ending Flock contracts since the end of July 2026, and described Mayflower as one of the first in the state to physically remove its cameras. No city council vote, vote tally, contract amount or term length is documented, and the deciding official is identified only as the police department. neareport.com, August 17, 2026

Officials said they concluded they could not protect resident data once it left town limits, because the Flock network lets police agencies across the country search what local cameras collect. They said local privacy rules cannot govern a system built for data sharing. No council vote preceded the cancellation, and the town manager and town attorney were set to explain the decision at the September 1, 2026 council meeting rather than at a debate first planned for September 15, 2026. KTAR counted Cave Creek as at least the 9th Arizona city or town to drop or restrict Flock. No camera count or contract amount appears in the coverage reviewed. AZFamily, August 26, 2026

McClain told the board that his official recommendation was that the town stop the program. The department had used the cameras to investigate serious crimes, locate missing and endangered people and support traffic safety. Bolivar and Pulaski County ended their Flock agreements in the same month. Neither source lists individual aldermen, the contract amount, the camera count, the funding source, the term length or the date the board first approved the contract. ksmu.org, August 21, 2026

Mayor Mark Pietrowski said residents raised concerns about liberty and freedom and being able to move around town without fear of being tracked, and pointed to documented misuse by officers in other agencies. The decision followed a mid July 2026 conference call with Flock representatives about privacy complaints and reported data breaches elsewhere. At the same meeting the board approved a 60 month, $120,871 agreement with Axon Enterprise for body worn and in car cameras, at about $21,000 a year, replacing Versaterm. Pietrowski said on September 2, 2026 that reaction to the termination had been positive. Neither source gives the Flock contract amount, the funding source, the term length or the original approval vote. shawlocal.com, August 25, 2026

At the August 25, 2026 meeting the council took no vote on Police Chief Kelly Gordon's recommendation to move to Verkada, and instead directed staff to bring the full automated camera policy back for review in early 2027. Councilmember Meagan Harmon said privacy concerns are not going away and continue to grow. Kristen Sneddon opposed a renewal, while Mike Jordan and Eric Friedman pointed to crimes the cameras helped solve and Wendy Santamaria backed a public discussion. Public opposition centered on federal immigration agencies gaining access to license plate data. Neither source states the contract amount, the funding source, the term length or the original approval date and vote. noozhawk.com, August 25, 2026

Two cameras were installed, one on Hayden Rowe Street and one on West Main Street near Interstate 495, and 2 more had been planned. The town asked Flock to deactivate the cameras as soon as possible and to remove them by September 30, 2026. CBS Boston reported the cancellation on August 21, 2026 and quoted Select Board Chair Shahidul Mannan. Interim Police Chief Scott van Raalten said the department began looking into the technology about a year and a half earlier. No source names the specific procurement statute, the contract amount, the contract term or the funding source. hopkintonindependent.com, August 20, 2026

Police Chief John Urban was on vacation for the vote and, according to the Independent, would likely have argued to keep the system. Councilman Greg Mancini said the contract began in 2023, took effect in 2025 and renewed automatically in early 2026, a renewal town officials had overlooked. Earlier Independent reporting put the department deployment at 13 cameras across town, which conflicts with the 6 removed after the vote, so no camera count is given and both figures are named. North Kingstown was the last South County municipality to drop the system, following South Kingstown on July 27, 2026 and Narragansett in early August 2026. No contract amount appears in the coverage reviewed. rhodeislandcurrent.com, August 18, 2026

An officer was placed on administrative leave less than a week later while the inquiry continued. The department had used the technology for more than two years and said it helped solve numerous crimes. City Councilmember Johnny Melton said Surprise could resume using the system when better safeguards are in place. Coverage placed the case alongside improper Flock access by officers in Chandler, Apache Junction and Goodyear. Neither source gives the contract amount, the camera count, the funding source, the term length or the date the council first approved the agreement. Axios, August 17, 2026

Ramsay said the size and rural character of St. Louis County meant the results did not justify the continued expense. He also cited community concern about the technology, and said the point of a pilot is to weigh results, costs, operational issues and public reaction. The remaining 5 cameras were to be collected by the company in the days after the decision. The sheriff's office kept the plate readers mounted in its squad cars and noted that a 2015 Minnesota law already caps retention at 60 days and requires officer documentation and audits. The City of Duluth separately ended its own Flock contract effective September 7, 2026. No contract amount appears in the coverage reviewed, and no county board vote preceded the decision. wdio.com, August 28, 2026

KATV reported that the city signed with Flock Safety in 2024 for five license plate reader cameras. That same report described the city removing one camera outside the home of residents Charlie and Angie Wolf after the Institute for Justice sent a letter on July 17 warning of Fourth Amendment problems, with the police chief refusing the request before the letter arrived. The count of cameras still in service when the contract ended is not documented. No city council vote, vote tally, contract amount, term length or termination date beyond August 12, 2026 is documented. neareport.com, August 17, 2026

The Arkansas Advocate reported on August 19, 2026 that Centerton was one of at least six Arkansas cities that let Flock contracts expire or ended them early since the end of July 2026. KATV separately listed Centerton among Arkansas cities that stopped using the cameras. No vote tally with member names, camera count, contract amount, term length or termination effective date appears in any of these sources. Centerton posts council minutes as PDFs on its city website, but the August 11, 2026 minutes were not published there as of September 8, 2026. Both outlets are Arkansas newsrooms covering Arkansas municipalities, which separates this Centerton from places of the same name elsewhere. neareport.com, August 17, 2026

Constable John D. Shirley oversaw the shutdown and said permanent warrantless tracking of people going about their day does not belong in a free society. County officials asked Flock for a $126,000 refund for taxpayers and rejected Flock's offer of a credit instead. The Texas Tribune reported on August 28, 2026 that Hood County had received Motor Vehicle Crime Prevention Authority grant money for Flock cameras before ending the contract, and that the program draws on a $1 annual auto insurance fee created in 2023. The Tribune put the statewide total at more than $30 million in MVCPA grant money spent on Flock cameras. Neither source gives the original contract amount, the Hood County grant award, or the date the county first signed. keranews.org, August 19, 2026

Sheriff Aaron Rochon said on August 10, 2026 that the board had decided to end the contract immediately and discontinue the program under the current agreement. The Daily News put typical Flock pricing at $2,500 to $3,000 per camera per year plus a one time install fee of $250 to $350 per camera, and did not report the exact sum Dickinson paid. The board said it would weigh effectiveness, investigative value and other issues before seeking municipal money. The KIND board includes Sheriff Rochon, Prosecuting Attorney Abbey Anderson and the police chiefs of Kingsford, Iron Mountain and Norway. ironmountaindailynews.com, July 15, 2026

On July 30, 2026 the Select Board directed Town Counsel to begin canceling the contract, instructed the Department of Public Works to remove all six cameras, and asked Littleton Electric Light and Water Departments to disconnect power. Select Board Chairman Gary Wilson led that action. Town Administrator James Duggan told the Boston Globe on August 6, 2026 that the town had not canceled its contract and was still reviewing the technology, so the two sources disagree on whether termination had been completed. Police Chief Douglas Landry ran the check that found the reactivation. Neither source gives a vote tally for the May shutdown or the July 30 direction, and neither states the contract amount, the term, the original approval date, or any retention, audit or reporting condition. This is Littleton in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. shrewsburypost.com, August 3, 2026

On February 9, 2026 the council approved a replacement contract with Axon Enterprise worth 422,636.28 dollars over 5 years for 26 readers. WRVO reported that February tally as 5 to 1 and Central Current reported it as 7 to 1, and both figures are named here because the sources disagree and neither published a full roll call. The council voted on March 23, 2026 to revoke Flock permission to operate on city streets and set a hardware removal deadline of May 26, 2026. Syracuse police unplugged the readers on June 19, 2026 and Flock took all 13 units out on July 14, 2026. A Flock legal officer said the agreement allowed termination only for material breach with a 30 day cure period. No source gives a dollar figure for the original Flock contract, and the Axon total is not shown because it belongs to a different vendor. spectrumlocalnews.com, November 24, 2025

Chief information officer Dean Gialamas cited serious concerns around civil liberties and civil rights, particularly privacy and control of the collected data. The department says it is renegotiating with the company and will keep the system out of use until ownership and control of the data are settled by contract. Flock spokesperson Holly Beilin said the expiry caught the company by surprise. The Los Angeles Police Commission's Inspector General reviewed the program on July 10, 2026 in report BPC 26-184 and recorded that on June 11, 2023 the Department entered into a memorandum of understanding with Flock that remained in effect until June 2026. That report attributes the agreement to the Department and records no Board of Police Commissioners or City Council vote, so no approving body is stated here. It counts 298 pole-mounted readers citywide: 139 funded by Council Districts 11 and 12, 60 bought by the Department, 49 acquired by the Los Angeles Police Foundation with donated funds from homeowners associations, and 50 on loan for Pacific Palisades under a second memorandum signed January 23, 2025. The Inspector General dates the end of the agreement to June 2026 while TechCrunch dates it July 11, 2026; both are given because no document reconciles them. TechCrunch, July 13, 2026

City-owned readers now sit at high-traffic spots; the police department is still choosing the software that will run them, with a target of August 31. No document names who approved the original purchase. The cameras went in during 2022 on a yearly subscription that expired June 30, 2026, and were out of use from July 1, 2026, with Mayor Dominick Pangallo and Police Chief Lucas Miller announcing the end. The city's own site and the Salem News were both unreachable from this session, the first refusing automated requests and the second returning HTTP 429, and Salem has no Legistar instance, so neither a council vote nor an administrative purchase can be confirmed. salemnews.com, July 24, 2026

Police had asked for either a three year deal at 315,000 dollars or a one year deal at 105,000 dollars, and the council rejected both. An El Cerrito Police Department review released February 27, 2026 found that between June and August 2023 agencies outside California searched El Cerrito plate records, including the FBI, ATF, the GSA Inspector General and the National Park Service, with two later breaches by the United States Postal Inspection Service from September to November 2023 and by Loma Linda Healthcare Veterans Affairs Police in May 2025; the department said no federal immigration agency searched its records. Out of state sharing of this kind is barred by SB 34. Removal of the cameras started July 31, 2026 and was expected to finish by August 18, 2026. The one source giving a meeting date gives an internally inconsistent one, so no approval date is given. contracosta.news, February 27, 2026

Haddad called the move a decision to slow down, do this right, and come back to Town Meeting with a solution that the community can have real confidence in. The Select Board had voted 4 to 1 at its May 18, 2026 meeting to let the license plate reader program continue into fiscal year 2027, despite a Town Meeting vote taken two weeks earlier. A Police Camera Working Group will bring a recommendation to the Spring 2027 Town Meeting for voters to decide. The town press release and the Groton Herald report do not state the contract amount, the number of cameras, the contract term or the funding source, and no source names how each Select Board member voted in May. grotonherald.com, May 19, 2026

They are not license plate readers, so no camera count is given. The purchase used $57,040 in Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance grant money over two years, with no city cost beyond the grant. Vice Mayor Terry McGuire and Councilman Nick Hagen voted no. Installation was paused in June 2026 after 30 devices went up in the wrong places, which City Manager Valmarie Turner attributed to data entry errors in sensor addresses, including Orange Ave. typed as Grange Ave. Council voted unanimously in July 2026 to repeal the April ordinance, and all 41 installed devices were removed. Cardinal News reported on July 6, 2026 that it was unclear whether the grant money could be reused, and that Roanoke still had 27 other Flock devices, 26 license plate readers and one live video camera. wdbj7.com, April 20, 2026

Mayor Nolan Bradford signed a letter on April 1, 2026 authorizing transfer of the cameras to the sheriff. Flock Safety executed the contract amendment on April 17, 2026, and the recurring cost of about $12,000 a year moved to the county. The Cullman Tribune obtained these records through a request, and the council vote count on the dissolution ordinance was not stated. The city no longer holds a Flock contract in its own name. cullmantribune.com, July 9, 2026

The city had 16 Flock license plate reader cameras, installed in early 2024 under an Arizona Department of Public Safety border security grant. A Flock representative told the council data is automatically deleted after 30 days. City Manager Charles Potucek recommended pulling back on the contract extension, and council concerns centered on Flock owning rights to captured photos and potentially selling data, with Vice Mayor Carolyn Flowers supporting a scale-back, Councilmember Brian Miers wanting alternatives explored and Councilmember Mark Rodriguez raising data security while participating remotely. The cameras remained physically in place after termination until Flock removed them, and were not operational. The city maintains a Flock transparency portal page that publishes retention timelines, camera counts, vehicle detections, hot list alerts and searches over the past 30 days. KGUN 9 dates the council direction February 24, 2026 and the Sierra Vista Herald/Review dates the debate February 25, 2026. kgun9.com, February 24, 2026

Mayor Mike Johnston's office then signed a shorter extension priced at $498,500, just under the $500,000 threshold at which Denver contracts require council approval, and on October 22, 2025 the mayor's office extended the contract again, to March 2026. The network covers 111 license plate readers, and between 700 and 800 Denver police officers can search it, Commander Jake Herrera of the Operational Innovation Bureau said at a town hall the next day. Policy director Tim Hoffman told that meeting the system had helped recover more than 250 stolen vehicles since installation began in May 2024 and produced evidence in the arrests of nine homicide suspects. Audit logs published in August 2025 showed Denver camera data had been searched more than 1,400 times for immigration enforcement, through a Flock national lookup feature that Denver police said they were unaware of and disabled in April 2025. The October extension added terms meant to block access by federal agents and outside agencies, and the city said Flock verbally agreed to pay $100,000 for each improper release of data. Council members Sarah Parady, Serena Gonzalez-Gutierrez, and Shontel Lewis all objected to how the extension was handled. Colorado Newsline, October 23, 2025

Council approved that lease 3 to 2, and the mayor voted no over privacy concerns. Council took the contract up again at an August 17, 2026 session that officials described as discussion only, with no vote scheduled that night. Police Chief Dale Coleman said the cameras could be switched off as soon as the following Tuesday and that the department would go back to doing police work as it always had. Mayor Megan Sladek said the removal takes away a tool and takes away a lot of concerns. No document reviewed states the lease price, the annual cost per camera or any retention condition. fox35orlando.com, September 22, 2025

5 of the 7 votes are named in the packet; the 2 remaining yes votes are not, so the roll call lists the 5 named. 6 cameras were to go at the Sanford rotary and downtown intersections, with data kept in the cloud, restricted to the Sanford Police Department and deleted after 21 days unless kept for an investigation. On October 7, 2025 the council reversed itself and voted 5-0 to cancel the approval before any camera was installed. Councilor Bob Stackpole, who had seconded the September motion, said the city was not ready for the technology and that there were too many unknowns. Councilor Ayn Hanselmann, who chairs the public safety subcommittee, raised Axon readers as an alternative. The Portland Press Herald reported Sanford as the second Maine community to approve Flock cameras. The Sanford City Council meeting packet containing the September 16, 2025 minutes records a 60 day free trial of 6 Flock cameras and a $23,000 annual fee that would have applied only if the council approved a subscription after the demo, and because the council voted on October 7, 2025 to cancel before any subscription began, no contract amount is recorded. pressherald.com, September 29, 2025

The board had renewed the contract in 2024 on a 4-3 vote. A village audit found Oak Park data in at least one immigration-related search, and the Illinois Secretary of State was investigating out-of-state searches of Illinois Flock data.

Broadnax told the June 4 work session he appreciated the department's presentation and was sensitive to community concerns and outstanding questions from council members. KUT reports 40 fixed cameras across the city plus roughly 500 cameras mounted on police vehicles, and, reading the May 2025 City Auditor report, that between 10 and 20 percent of license plate searches in the database carried no clear reason or case number, contrary to the council resolution. The audit itself reports about 117 million scans, more than 16,000 alerts, 228 arrests, about 133 prosecutions, 6 documented data shares and 24 plates approved for the hotlist, and it flags expansive language and unclear definitions in the Flock Safety contract. The council authorized the program by Resolution 20220915-056 on September 15, 2022, cut data retention to 7 days by Resolution 20230608-085 on June 8, 2023, and approved a trial extension by Resolution 20250327-103 on March 27, 2025. No document states a contract amount. An earlier version of this page said the audit found more than 20 percent of searches lacked justification; the published audit states no such figure, and KUT gives a range of 10 to 20 percent. # record, June 5, 2025

Couture said the first major story about Flock data practices ran the day after he signed, and the town was not using the cameras enough to justify keeping them. The town owes an exit fee Flock has not yet stated, and it handles records requests itself because the state police covering town do not. The FY2026-FY2035 Multi-Year Capital Improvement Plan carries a line for 4 Flock Safety Falcon cameras at $14,600, and the document records that the plan was approved at the Board of Selectmen's meeting held on April 29, 2025 and at Town Meeting held May 19, 2025. The cameras run under the Resident State Trooper program. Selectmen minutes from March 13, 2025 record a motion by E. Couture, seconded by J. D'Angelo, recommending the capital budget to the Board of Finance after discussion of including the Flock cameras. No signed vendor agreement is posted and no contract term or end date is stated. townofkillingworth.com, May 19, 2025

Funding splits into $40,000 from the Drug Seizure Fund and $10,550 from the General Fund. The staff report gives a contract end date of May 31, 2026. The minutes record a unanimous 7 to 0 vote, and every member the minutes list as present is recorded here as a yes. The staff report states the system does not use facial recognition and is not used for traffic enforcement. No renewal or extension document was found after the stated end date. cms3.revize.com, April 28, 2025

A separate line in the same resolution covers first responder drones at $116,142.86 annually; only the camera figure is shown here. Trustee Jeremy Gans cast the sole no vote, citing concerns about privacy and the sharing of personal data. Mayor Justin Arest said a federal grant would pay for it. The same outlet reported on June 27, 2025 that the mayor announced the installation would be postponed after the funding application through Senator Gillibrand's office was not successful. scarsdale10583.com, April 8, 2025

The district signed a two year renewal on March 30, 2025. On September 1, 2026 Bowers announced the district would end the program early, calling the safety benefit limited and pointing to the risk of losing public trust. Flock agreed to end the agreement at no additional cost and to pull the equipment out within a couple of weeks. source

Undersheriff Schiller presented the proposal and negotiated the terms, and the minutes describe a 12 month contract sitting beneath the trial. Funding for the final project was to come from intergovernmental agreements with local jurisdictions. Commissioners Beggs, Hardy, McCormick, Erickson and Walker all voted yes. The minutes put no dollar figure on the county's own share. source

The network was 57 cameras, a figure documented in May v. City of Eugene, the ACLU of Oregon records suit filed October 20, 2025 after the city refused to disclose camera locations. The city turned the cameras off October 14, 2025, before the December cancellation. Retention ran 30 days. The original approval history sits in the withheld records the suit seeks. In the police department's council presentation, the procurement timeline runs from EPD applying for the Criminal Justice Commission Organized Retail Theft grant on July 1, 2024, to the city receiving the award on August 27, 2024, to City Purchasing confirming IT Exemption E-10 on September 3, 2024, which lets city departments contract directly with a vendor, to a working group selecting Flock Safety on December 13, 2024, to the city and Flock Safety executing the software agreement on March 24, 2025. No City Council vote appears anywhere in that timeline. At the October 8, 2025 work session Councilor Keating stated the contract was not shared with council before execution, and the council voted 8 to 0 on a motion recommending the city manager pause ALPR use. That was a pause, not an approval, so it is not recorded as a roll call. ompnetwork.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com, October 8, 2025

The policy requires reporting to the board if county-controlled reader data reaches the federal government, with compliance audits every 4 months. On March 11, 2025 the Board of Supervisors approved a no-cost memorandum of understanding with the City of Cupertino covering use of automated license plate readers from March 11, 2025 through June 30, 2026, and the item names the Flock Safety Falcon system. The county bought nothing. The item states the readers will be purchased, installed and maintained by the City of Cupertino and that there are no fiscal implications to the county general fund, which is why no county amount or camera count is given. sccgov.iqm2.com, March 11, 2025

It sets the renewal cost at 76,000 dollars per year from the second year forward, excluding installation, and places the agreement on a yearly basis with a renewal option. The document says Flock Safety covers maintenance and repairs at no charge and that Davidson County gains access to data collected by other agencies running Flock cameras across the United States. It also notes the Lexington Police Department was separately acquiring 15 cameras under its own agreement. Commissioners voted on August 24, 2026 to end the county Flock program, and DavidsonLocal reported they discussed how quickly the cameras could come down without setting a removal deadline. DavidsonLocal gives the first year cost as 90,750 dollars while the Sheriff's Office request gives 90,650 dollars, and the figure shown is the one from the county filing. agendasuite.org, September 16, 2024

The resolution ties the cameras to a 12-month pilot budgeted at 78,500 dollars that the board established earlier through Resolution 23-142 on March 28, 2023. The board claimed a categorical exemption under CEQA Guidelines section 15303(e) for new construction or conversion of small structures, citing minimal ground disturbance. The Nevada County Sheriff's Office filed the Notice of Exemption with the State Clearinghouse on July 3, 2024 under number 2024070193, describing a 13 foot pole with a camera and solar panel. The state filing describes a single pole while the resolution authorizes 2 cameras at the intersection, so the camera count here comes from the resolution text. Neither document sets a retention period, a sharing limit, an audit duty, or a public reporting requirement, and no renewal or termination document for the pilot was located. # record, June 25, 2024

The Clawson City Council approved four ALPR Flock Safety Falcon cameras at its April 16, 2024 meeting on a 4 to 1 vote, at $14,600 in the first year of the contract and $12,000 in the next, over two years, paid through the city's American Rescue Plan Act funds. The amount shown is the first-year figure. The article names no individual votes, so the roll call records the tally without names. The city's own agenda portal blocks automated reading, so the underlying agenda item has not been read. candgnews.com, April 16, 2024

Council Member Ray Bonilla Jr. moved and Council Member Daniel Goldstein seconded, and the action record logs 7 ayes from Andrews, Bonilla Jr., Goldstein, Roche, Syrop, Zermeno and Salinas. The record gives no execution date, so the two year term has no documented start or end. No funding account, retention period, sharing limit, audit or public reporting requirement appears in the item title or the action record. The 300,000 dollar figure is the amount shown because it covers this agreement; the 500,000 dollar figure is a cumulative cap on all Flock Safety agreements, not the price of this one. Status is set to expired because two years have passed since the March 19, 2024 authorization and no renewal or extension document was found. # record, March 19, 2024

The city’s inventory included 11 fixed license plate readers, 4 fixed video cameras, and 4 mobile trailers. On July 23, 2026, the mayor’s office stated all license plate readers had been removed and the contract canceled. The city’s own April 15 release confirmed the transition away from Flock; Indiana Public Media reported in May that non-reader Flock devices remained active, and residents protested in July for full removal. The police chief's memorandum to the Common Council states that the first agreement was entered on February 28, 2024 for Flock OS and 11 Flock LPR products, that the first-year cost with fees was $40,650 against an annual renewal of $36,500, and that the agreements were treated as sole source and were not required to be approved by a board or commission. The Bloomington Police Department approved them. That is the answer to who approved this: no elected body did. The memo was written in response to Council Resolution 2026-04. # record, April 22, 2026

The roll call recorded 6 ayes and no nays, with Trustees Wilbrandt, Price, Yuscka, Johnson, Alopogianis and Anderley voting yes and no members absent. The board minutes give surnames only. The board packet puts the cost at 32,250 dollars including installation and permit fees across a two year contract. The board had tabled the item on November 6, 2023 after trustees asked for written answers on contract details by November 9. Chief Gorski backed the purchase and cited village cases involving stolen vehicles. Neither packet names a funding source, a data retention period or a sharing condition. No renewal document was located, so the two year term is recorded as run out. cms3.revize.com, November 20, 2023

The minutes put the system at 3,100 dollars and place it on a pole at Berts. Chief Danny Hackler first presented Flock on September 13, 2023 at 3,000 dollars per camera plus a 150 dollar one time install, with options of 2 years at 3,000 dollars or 1 year at 3,150 dollars, and the council tabled it that night by consensus with no vote. The city put 2 cameras into service starting in October 2023, one on First Street west of Ash Street and one at 10th and Main after a move from Kansas Highway 33. On August 20, 2026 Hackler announced he was terminating every agreement between the department and Flock Safety, saying the cameras would be covered and staff authorization removed, and tying the decision to residents who raised privacy concerns. That termination was a police chief decision rather than a council vote, so it stays out of the roll call. cityofwellsvilleks.org, October 25, 2023

The Broken Arrow Sentinel reported the vote as 4-1 with Ward 3 Councilwoman Christi Gillespie against and quoted Council Member Lisa Ford in favor. The city's Legistar entry records no action or result, and the meeting minutes are a scanned image with no searchable text, so the 4 yes votes appear as an unnamed group. The agenda lists the council that night as Mayor Debra Wimpee, Vice Mayor Christi Gillespie and Council Members Johnnie Parks, Lisa Ford and Justin Green. Legistar's fiscal entries read cost $0 and funding source N/A because of the pilot exit, and no document names the account that funded the $18,250, so the funding source is Unknown. On August 17, 2026 police spokeswoman Hannah Perry told the Sentinel the department does not own or operate any Flock cameras, though privately owned Flock cameras run in the city, and that it keeps a Flock contract giving authorized officers access to the Flock network. The city has bought its own readers instead: $82,576.12 of Hanwha 4K license plate readers from Orion Security Solutions approved on May 5, 2026 for 30 intersections, following a December 2025 authorization from the same vendor, with data on Leonardo ELSAG servers. No document states a termination date or a non-renewal notice for the 2023 lease, so the status here records a lapse the department has confirmed rather than a dated ending. # record, September 19, 2023

The agenda coversheet records no vote tally, so no roll call is given. Monterey County Now reported that the original deployment totaled 30 cameras and that the agreement ran out on March 30, 2025. On February 4, 2025 the council voted 4 to 1 to replace it with a smaller contract capped at 30,000 dollars over two years, cutting the fleet to 6 cameras with room to add up to 6 more during the term, and Councilmember Jeff Baron voted no. An ad hoc committee reviewed the contract first and raised privacy objections along with pending Fourth Amendment litigation against the vendor. The 2023 resolution is logged as expired because its term ended and a different agreement took its place. carmel.novusagenda.com, April 4, 2023

Funding was split, with 129,100 dollars from the FY 2022-23 budget in cost center CC20004, Sheriff Administration, and 109,500 dollars carried into the Sheriff's Office FY 2023-24 Recommended Budget. The memo states there is no impact to the General Fund. No renewal or extension document was located for the period after the two year term ended, so the present standing of the agreement is not documented. source

The Ferndale City Council approved a two-year Flock camera pilot at its March 27, 2023 meeting on a 3 to 2 vote costing $47,800 including installation. Mayor Melanie Piana and Councilmembers Pawlica and Raylon Leaks-May voted in favor; Mayor Pro Tem Kat Bruner James and Councilmember Mikulski voted against. The article gives no camera count and names no funding source. The city's Granicus portal blocks automated reading, so the agenda item and minutes have not been read. oaklandcounty115.com, April 16, 2023

The council set the term at four calendar years running from the execution date, and the record never prints that execution date. Council members Frank Hibbard, Hoyt Hamilton, David Allbritton and Kathleen Beckman are recorded voting aye, and the vote record shows no dissent. The city bought the service as a single source purchase under City Code of Ordinances Section 2.563(1)(a). The Legistar record carries no camera count, no retention period and no audit or reporting condition. Status is set to Expired because the four year term began no later than early 2022 and Clearwater Legistar holds no renewal item under a Flock title. That is an inference from the term printed on the approved document rather than a filed expiry notice, and it is named here as such. # record, December 13, 2021

It also set three optional one year renewals at 58,000 dollars a year and printed 290,000 dollars as a total. The amount shown is 116,000 dollars, the committed initial term, because the 290,000 dollar figure sits next to the optional renewals and its scope is unclear in the ordinance text. Both numbers are named here so a reader can see the gap. The remaining 220,265 dollars of the appropriation paid for other traffic safety equipment and is not part of the amount shown. The city manager may execute the renewals with aggregate price movement limited to the lesser of 50,000 dollars or 25 percent of the original maximum, and only where the council appropriates the money. Legistar records the adoption with no named roll call, and no later Flock matter appears in the Grand Prairie file, so the documented term has run out with no renewal on the record. # record, June 2, 2020

In its own meeting summary, the commission said the resolution bars Flock cameras and similar devices from county highways and properties. WBRC reported on September 11, 2026 that the ban covers unincorporated areas only, so Jasper, Dora, Sumiton and Cordova may keep their own systems.

Two weeks later, on October 21, 2025, the council instead considered warranty extensions with Motorola Solutions for body worn and in car cameras, and no Flock item appeared on a Lockhart agenda through September 15, 2026. source

The Seguin Gazette reported on August 11, 2026 that the system cost the county 25,000 dollars a year and that leaving early carried a fee of about 9,400 dollars. KSAT reported the exit cost at about 8,500 dollars and put the savings above 48,500 dollars, against more than 57,000 dollars owed if the county stayed through the rest of the term, so both exit figures are named here rather than averaged. Ray said he would not spend tax money replacing equipment that keeps getting torn down. The termination vote is described in prose here instead of in the roll call because it ended the purchase rather than approving one. No located document gives the camera count, the original approval date, the contract term or the data retention period. ksat.com, August 7, 2026

The town said an administrative review weighed the operational value of the cameras, whether they matched community expectations and related policy questions. Officials said Flock did not supply adequate documentation on public records obligations and oversight procedures. The town also said it did not want to depend on an externally maintained website for policy information, and framed the change as a chance to reassess technology with more public transparency. KJZZ counted Payson and Cottonwood as the 10th and 11th Arizona communities to terminate Flock contracts. Town officials said the cameras had helped identify suspect vehicles and establish movement patterns in active investigations. ktar.com, September 6, 2026

The office said it learned Flock was generating and marketing a separate dataset beyond the 30 day retention period it understood applied to law enforcement use. Schmaling said the department would keep looking at other automated plate reader technology. The City of Racine holds a separate contract, and its Personnel and Finance Committee voted 3 to 2 on September 8, 2026 against terminating that agreement, sending the question to the Common Council for September 15, 2026. Mayor Cory Mason said he did not think the city would move forward with Flock as a vendor next year. No camera count or contract amount for the sheriff's office appears in the coverage reviewed. cbs58.com, September 4, 2026

On September 8, 2026 the Common Council voted 7 to 1 to sever ties with Flock Safety, with Alderperson Tom Marshall casting the only vote against. WBAY reported the city served Flock a 30 day notice and expected the contract to end later in September 2026. The city shut off officer and employee accounts so nobody could search the system, and said the service was already paid through the end of the year with funding stopping in the next budget cycle. A former Menasha police officer was convicted of using Flock to track an ex girlfriend and sentenced to 6 months in jail. No contract amount or camera count appears in the city statements or the coverage reviewed. nbc26.com, September 1, 2026

Central Florida Public Media reported that the department is keeping its separate Flock security cameras at city parks, which do not read plates and sit outside the state order. The removal puts the city among a group of small Brevard County agencies that acted within a day of the memorandum, alongside Rockledge, Melbourne and Cocoa Beach. No contract amount, term or approval record for the Indian Harbour Beach agreement appears in any public document reviewed. The city council does not appear in any record as having voted on the original purchase. wusf.org, August 31, 2026

The management summary in that packet records that the police chief and city manager both recommended pulling out, citing privacy concerns, data security risk and public sentiment expressed by residents. The same document states the system had already been switched off pending a decision from the commission. The commission then voted unanimously to end the contract. Vice Mayor Tonya Sadler asked for the item to be placed on the agenda and pressed for a firm deadline so the vendor could not slow down collection of its equipment. The packet does not list a contract amount, a camera count or a term, and no original approval date is documented in it. cms8.revize.com, September 8, 2026

Port City Daily put the full agreement at $219,000 covering 36 devices, of which 20 are plate readers and 8 are Condor cameras that stream high resolution video. No contract amount is recorded here because that figure covers the video cameras as well as the readers. Sheriff Ed McMahon had told WECT on August 25, 2026 that the office ran 28 plate readers plus 8 pan tilt zoom cameras in county parks, a count that does not match the meeting figure of 20 readers, and both figures are named here rather than averaged. Zapple said he was uncomfortable with the reach of mass surveillance. The agreement had been set to run to spring 2027. wect.com, August 25, 2026

Police Chief Brian Bixby backed keeping the system and cited limited funding and competing local needs as the reason it did not survive. WSOC reported the permanent installation would have run about $15,000, and WHKY reported the council also turned down a reduced offer of roughly $3,000 for a single camera. No contract amount is recorded here because the town never entered a paid agreement. Town Manager Danny Hipps described the trial as a chance to see how the equipment would work for Catawba before committing. Officials said the question could come back in a future budget year. whky.com, September 7, 2026

A sheriff's office spokesman put the annual cost of the cameras being removed at $118,000 and said that money will pay for an additional traffic deputy instead. About 20 privately owned Flock cameras elsewhere in the county are outside the order and stay in place. No county commission vote approving the original purchase appears in any public record reviewed. The memo cited a sharp rise in roadside deployments along with reports of misuse and data privacy problems. wusf.org, August 31, 2026

Police Chief Matthew Moynihan told the Town Council the town guidelines were the strictest he had seen in the state. On July 27, 2026 the Town Council voted unanimously to terminate the contract and asked that the readers come down as soon as possible. No council vote approving the original purchase appears in the available reporting, so no roll call is given. The figure shown is the documented annual amount. aol.com, July 28, 2026

KUER reported on September 1, 2026 that the council then voted unanimously to cancel the trial before the cameras were installed. The Weber County Sheriff's Office separately operates 3 Flock cameras inside the city limits that went up in 2022, and the council action does not reach those. Mayor Allen said the camera discussion drew a bigger crowd than the city tax increase discussion, and that he would reconsider if Flock addresses the privacy problems. The published reports do not name the council members or give a tally for the March approval, so no roll call is given. ksl.com, August 25, 2026

Waukee joined Altoona, Ankeny, Clive, Pleasant Hill and West Des Moines, which were already running the system. On August 15, 2026 KCRG reported that the police department will not renew its relationship with Flock Safety, pointing to national concerns about privacy and data retention. The department said it will pause the program until the 2027 Iowa legislative session and revisit the decision once state law is settled. No exact dollar figure or camera count is given because both reports give rounded approximations rather than contract numbers. No roll call is recorded because neither report names the approving body, the meeting date or the vote. Axios, July 28, 2023

Scott, who introduced the ordinance, said it protects residents from large technology surveillance firms and from government overreach. The Herald-Dispatch reported on August 14, 2026 that the ordinance cleared a second reading and was set for a third and final reading on August 27, and that Flock Safety is named in it as an example of a prohibited system. The ordinance carves out vehicle mounted readers used by law enforcement, emergency use in kidnapping and missing person cases, and dash, body and security cameras that do not read plates. Council asked for clarification on whether the measure would reach Lawrence County Sheriff Office operations before final passage. No Flock Safety contract, camera count or dollar amount for Ironton is documented in either report, and the ban is written to cover all license plate reader vendors rather than one company. This is Ironton in Lawrence County, Ohio. herald-dispatch.com, August 14, 2026

WKTN radio reported on August 19, 2026 that Frey originally authorized the cameras for criminal investigations and for search and rescue in cases involving Alzheimer disease, dementia, runaways and missing children. Frey said his office solved a range of cases before the cameras arrived and would keep doing so without them. The cameras had been in place about one year at the time of removal. The Ohio Newsroom listed Wyandot County on September 2, 2026 among counties that ended Flock agreements. No contract value, term length, funding source, retention period or county commissioners vote is documented in any of the three reports. The county seat is Upper Sandusky. 13abc, August 19, 2026

The Ohio Newsroom listed Coshocton County on September 2, 2026 among Ohio jurisdictions that had ended Flock agreements. The removal was decided by the sheriff and no county commissioners vote is recorded in either report. Neither report gives a camera count, a contract value, a term length, a retention period or a funding source. No termination date for the agreement itself is documented. The county seat is Coshocton. sciotopost.com, August 14, 2026

Police Chief Paul Broxterman defended the technology but asked for the early exit, pointing to what he described as a negative public view of the cameras and to two incidents in which cameras were vandalized. Trustee Allen Freeman said the country is moving further and further into a surveillance state. Hoodline reported the same camera count and the same annual cost on September 2, 2026. The Ohio Newsroom reported on September 2, 2026 that the township was removing the cameras and cited vandalism and replacement costs. No exact meeting date, roll call by name, funding source, retention period or reporting condition is documented in the three reports. local12.com, September 1, 2026

Both outlets put the first year contract value at more than 258,000 dollars, and that figure is recorded here as stated. County Judge Shane Stolarczyk pointed to concerns about the credibility and trustworthiness of the vendor. District Attorney Nicole Bishop opposed ending the program and said there is no replacement for it, citing a solved armed robbery and fewer car burglaries in the Regent Park area of Boerne. Sheriff Al Auxier and Commissioner Richard Chapman of Precinct 3 took part in the discussion. Termination takes effect 30 days after the county sends formal written notice to Flock. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles fiscal 2026 grant listing records an award of 215,254 dollars to Kendall County for a Flock Safety program, money that comes from the 1 dollar auto insurance policy fee created by Senate Bill 224 in 2023. No exact meeting date and no full roster of commissioner names appears in either news report. The county seat is Boerne. source

The Boston Globe reported on August 27, 2026 that officials gave no reason at the time for letting the pilot lapse. The Globe also reported that the department has since run pilots with 2 competitors, Motorola Solutions starting in January 2026 and Axon starting in June 2026. In a separate story the Globe reported that the department negotiated modified contract terms restricting Flock's rights to disclose data. No contract amount, funding source, retention period or approving body has been made public for the Flock pilot. The Globe reported that at least 19 Massachusetts municipalities had opted out of Flock contracts as of late August 2026. source

Whittemore said the department did not share data with immigration authorities or with agencies in states that have banned abortion, and shared within roughly a 200 mile radius. The camera was taken down on August 18, 2026, well before the contract was due to run out, and the chief said he would not deploy more Flock cameras or continue after expiration. Sources disagree on when the agreement was set to end. The Swellesley Report put the scheduled expiration at June 2027, and The Boston Globe reported on August 21, 2026 that the pilot had been scheduled through the end of 2027. No contract end date is given for that reason. No dollar amount, term length in months or retention period is stated in either source, and no Select Board vote authorized or ended the pilot. source

The ACLU of Massachusetts records Attleboro as ending its Flock deployment in March 2026 over cost. An earlier ACLU of Massachusetts post on October 7, 2025 published a redacted Attleboro Flock network audit screenshot showing the department inside the nationwide sharing network, which let out of state agencies reach its data. The cancellation was made by the police chief rather than by a recorded council vote, so there is no tally and no named roll call to report. The ACLU of Massachusetts lists more than 25 Massachusetts communities that rejected or dropped Flock, among them Boston, Cambridge, Watertown and Natick. No contract end date, total contract value or retention period appears in the sources reviewed. data.aclum.org, October 7, 2025

The status shown follows the Advocate because it makes the more specific claim about contract status, and the disagreement is named here. No city council vote, vote tally, camera count, contract amount, term length or effective end date is documented in either source. Both outlets are Arkansas newsrooms writing about Arkansas municipalities, which separates this Farmington from towns of the same name in New Mexico, Missouri, Michigan, Minnesota, Connecticut and Utah. Farmington city council minutes or a termination notice covering the decision were not located. arkansasadvocate.com, August 19, 2026

Town Manager Mike Faith said the trial exposed the system's inability to share information with other municipalities. Because that vote ended the deployment rather than approving it, no approval roll call is recorded here. Maryland Bay News reported on July 11, 2026 that camera markers still appeared on crowdsourced maps and that removal remained unconfirmed. The Hancock News reported on August 18, 2026 that one camera was still standing downtown, was not working, and that officials had spent months trying to get it taken down. The 2 outlets give different camera counts, so no count is given. No contract amount, term length, approval date, retention schedule, or audit condition has been published. thehancocknews.com, November 18, 2025

The council left the cameras out of the fiscal 2027 budget, and Auburn began pulling them down in August 2026. Maine Public reported in June 2026 that councilors had voted in March to advance camera funding, which conflicts with later Sun Journal, Maine Morning Star and WABI reporting that no money was appropriated; the no funding outcome is used because 3 outlets tie it to the adopted budget and to the removal. State legislators Quentin Chapman, David Boyer and Laurel Libby organized a citizen initiative to ban the cameras outright. The petition gathered more than 1,800 signatures against a threshold of 1,568, and the Auburn city clerk certified it on August 19, 2026, sending it to the City Council and toward a possible November ballot question. No contract amount, term length, or retention policy for Auburn has been published. This is Auburn in Androscoggin County, Maine. mainepublic.org, June 8, 2026

The 2 counts differ; the count of 14 is used because The Bristol Edition figure is the later one and came from the police department at a City Council meeting. Police Chief Mark Morello told the council that data is deleted after 21 days unless tied to an active investigation, that no data leaves Connecticut, that vendors cannot reach or resell it, and that misuse would bring termination and possible criminal charges. Morello also said license plate readers directly led to arrests in about 40 to 50 cases. Mayor Ellen Zoppo-Sassu and City Councilors Peter Kelly and Sue Tyler took part in the August 2026 discussion, which drew resident objections on privacy grounds. No contract document, dollar figure, cancellation vote tally or termination date was found. wfsb.com, May 28, 2026

Retention is set at 30 days, and the term begins at first installation and validation of the hardware. The signature blocks on the copy posted in the town agenda packet are blank. Inside Investigator reported on April 1, 2024 that police had tested the system under an unsigned memorandum of understanding the Board of Selectmen never approved, giving officers database access with no cameras installed in town. First Selectman Bernard Dennler and Selectman Art Shilosky questioned the program, while Officer Dominic Sullivan said it helped find a missing person and solve a vehicle break in on its first day. Inside Investigator reported again on July 12, 2026 that the Board of Selectmen did not approve the purchase and that Colchester still reaches Flock data held by other departments. No vote tally, funding line or executed contract appears in any source found. source

Guthrie News Page reported on April 28, 2025 that the city would end the contract in 2025 because the grant money had run out and Guthrie would be responsible for future costs. KFOR put the continuation price at about 35,000 dollars a year and reported the council declined to renew because of limited local funding and competing project priorities. Sgt. Anthony Gibbs said the cameras had helped with vehicle theft arrests and a pursuit in 2023 and called losing them a setback. The sources describe the original council approval as unanimous but give no meeting date, no individual votes, and no camera count. Neither source states a retention period, an audit requirement, a public portal or any reporting condition. guthrienewspage.com, April 28, 2025

FOX 9 reported the vote as unanimous and described the measure as a request rather than a ban. The resolution asks the administration to report back on progress within 60 days. FOX 9 reported that Mayor Kaohly Her and the police chief committed to removing the two Flock cameras the city owns. KSTP reported 12 Flock cameras inside the city, with 2 run by Saint Paul police and 10 by the Ramsey County Sheriff, so the count shown covers only the 2 city-owned cameras. No dollar amount, term length or contract end date appears in the resolution record or in the coverage read for this entry. This entry records a vote to end contracts, so no approval roll call is listed. source

Commander Ben Zawacki said the office puts a high value on its relationship with the communities it serves and did not want to erode that trust. Keeping the cameras past the trial would have required local tax dollars. Neither source names the grant program or gives a dollar figure, and no contract amount or term length is published. The KNSI report of September 3, 2026 placed the decision alongside other Minnesota jurisdictions dropping the technology, and noted that the St. Cloud City Council set a September 21, 2026 work session to review its own police use of Flock. hometownsource.com, August 15, 2026

The same report covered a second rejection in March 2023 of a smaller plan for 4 cameras on Barber Road that the Fred Martin Superstore offered to fund at $22,000 over two years. The Akron Beacon Journal recorded that second tally at 5 to 2, with DeHarpart, Tousley, Whipkey, Lukens and Bates opposed and Pelot and Kernan in favor. Councilwoman Charlotte Whipkey said she did not have faith that the cameras would not be abused, and Councilman DeHarpart cited constituent opposition. Akron.com reported on November 7, 2024 that Police Chief Brett McShane brought back a plan for 10 cameras at $33,250 in year one and $63,250 over two years, and that council advanced it to a first reading on November 4, 2024. The outcome of that 2024 ordinance is not documented in the sources read here. No roll call is listed because these were rejection votes. news5cleveland.com, March 22, 2023

Annual software cost ran about $6,000. Open Easthampton reported on July 3, 2026 that the City Council eliminated funding for Flock products and services on June 10, 2026, and that the contract still had several months left to run at that point. The same report found the department shared data more widely than city officials understood. Chief Chad Alexander, appointed in May 2025, later turned off out of state data sharing. No source gives the original approval date, the contract start date, or an exact end date. theshoestring.org, May 17, 2025

On August 25, 2026 the Select Board voted unanimously to instruct staff to send a termination notice before the September 27, 2026 renewal deadline. Chair David Farrag, Ellen Maher, Gregory Watts and William Ashton all backed that instruction. The South Shore Times reported on July 26, 2026 that Chief William Quigley drew Select Board pushback in January 2025 over a town wide camera funding request. Neither source names the body that first approved the contract, its start date, or the funding source, and only South Shore News states the $12,000 figure, so the amount rests on a single report. southshoretimes.com, July 26, 2026

Police Chief Brandon Sarti said the city asked him to cut more than $215,000 from the police budget, and the city manager described the cancellation as budgetary. Sarti said the cameras helped solve major cases including a homicide, and added that there is a national outcry and the citizens are the ones paying the bill. Residents also raised privacy concerns and questioned federal immigration access to the data. Oregon enacted a law in 2026 limiting license plate reader data retention to 30 days unless it is needed for an investigation. Neither source records the council vote count, the members' names, the contract end date, the term length or the original approval date. ijpr.org, August 19, 2026

King said deputies had to supply a case number or a call for service number before running a search, and that searches were audited every 28 days using standards similar to the Idaho Law Enforcement Telecommunications System policy. He said the move is not a political decision and is not about taking sides, and pointed to community concerns about data collection, retention and access. King added that the decision does not diminish the system's past success or the work deputies did with it. This is Lincoln County, Idaho; Lincoln County, North Carolina has its own page. Reports do not state the number of cameras, the contract amount, the funding source, the contract end date or how the county originally approved the agreement. kmvt.com, August 25, 2026

Taylor cited public perception of the technology, budget priorities and past misuse inside the agency, noting that former Sheriff George Oppedyke ran thousands of illegal searches before resigning in 2025. Commissioner Charlie Howell said there was no organized public opposition in Jerome County, unlike neighboring jurisdictions. Taylor called Idaho's criminal code on reader misuse very vague and asked lawmakers for stronger penalties. Commissioners supported redirecting the money to employee salaries. Neither source records the contract end date, the term length, the funding source or any commissioner vote on the original agreement. kmvt.com, September 4, 2026

The initial agreement with Flock Group, Inc. ran two years at $96,000, with installation charges of $150 to $1,250 per camera, relocations up to $2,000 and replacements at $800. The program started in April 2025 with 10 cameras, and the department had planned to add four more. Police Chief Jeff Swoboda said losing the system could delay crime response times and affect investigations. The contract allowed the city to exit without penalty if future budgets did not appropriate funds, and Flock deleted footage on a rolling 30 day basis unless it was archived. None of the sources name the other 6 council members or record how the original contract was approved. fcreport.org, April 15, 2026

Creasey said reader technology is a valuable investigative tool and that he also recognizes residents' concerns about privacy, data access, and the constitutional rights of law abiding citizens. He stated the move was not the result of any identified misuse of the system. Accounts differ on the mechanism, with WTVR reporting a suspension dated August 28, 2026 and The Richmonder describing the county as ending its use; the status shown follows The Richmonder. No termination document, contract price or funding source has been released. wtvr.com, August 28, 2026

Cline said automated readers raise important and evolving questions about privacy, data collection, information sharing, and the constitutional rights of citizens who have not been accused of a crime. He credited the cameras with investigative value before concluding that the contract should end. The contract price, term length and funding source were not disclosed by the sheriff's office, by WSLS, or in the Cardinal News roundup. No Board of Supervisors vote approving the original contract has been located. wsls.com, September 1, 2026

The office pointed to complaints from residents about privacy and civil liberties as the reason for the decision. Clark said the sheriff's office belongs to the community it serves and has to weigh enforcement value against constitutional rights. WSLS placed the move alongside similar decisions in Wythe, Bland, Charlotte and Henry counties and at the Lynchburg Police Department. None of the sources state how many cameras Campbell County operated, what the contract cost or when it was due to expire. wsls.com, September 2, 2026

Over the life of the program the 3 cameras helped recover 1 stolen vehicle and helped locate 1 missing elderly person. The cameras were paid for with a HEAT grant from the Virginia State Police rather than out of county funds. A work order has been placed with Flock to take the cameras down, and Ramsey said there is no pending contract. He added that any other Flock cameras still in the county are not operated by his office, which leaves their ownership unaccounted for in the public record. wsls.com, September 1, 2026

The same account states that the Elkton Police Department made the first contact with Flock and that the town manager signed the 2024 agreement without a council vote and without public notice. About 75 residents attended the July meeting, and the opposition group says it spent more than $800 on public records requests to obtain program details. Sergeant Insana presented the department's case to council and described the system as a legal tool. The Augusta Free Press piece was written by the founder of the group that organized against the cameras, so it is an interested account. Camera counts, the contract price and a removal schedule are not stated in either source. augustafreepress.com, July 21, 2026

The city's 15 fixed license plate cameras have been offline since August 19, 2026. The gunshot detection count also differs by source, with Cardinal News reporting 54 devices and WSET reporting 55. Council member Chris Faraldi said the resolution means the city is not sending a single penny more to Flock. The city attorney raised a possible $35,000 early termination fee, and the resolution as adopted leaves equipment in place until the agreement expires in April 2027. Council member Marty Misjuns filed a competing resolution to force removal by October 2026, set for the council's next meeting on September 8, 2026. wsls.com, September 3, 2026

Fourteen residents spoke before the vote and all of them opposed the cameras. Police Chief Chris Ramsey defended the system as an effective investigative tool, then told WDBJ7 that none of that is worth sacrificing the integrity of the agency. Councilwoman Kim Bowman made the motion to remove the cameras. The town's own council minutes from June 24, 2025 record only a presentation by Ramsey on the program with no motion, vote or dollar figure, so the original approval vote and its tally are not documented. Physical removal had not been scheduled as of August 26, 2026, though account shutdown was already underway. christiansburg.org, June 24, 2025

Detective Sgt. Kevin Connolly said the system logged about 2.2 million plate reads a month on a 30 day retention window, and that federal sharing, nationwide search and immigration related queries had already been turned off. Police Chief Jean Challies and Detective Lt. Joseph Green described restricted access, routine audits and a bar on outside agencies querying Barnstable footage directly. Council President Craig Tamash, a retired Barnstable deputy police chief, voted to keep the program. WCAI reported on August 20, 2026 that some councilors first learned of the cameras from news coverage, and no council vote approving the original contract has been located. capeandislands.org, August 20, 2026

The department said the system has been instrumental in helping solve several serious crimes but that given the divisive atmosphere surrounding its use, deactivating the system is the appropriate decision at this time. The shutdown was announced by the police department in a public statement, not through a Select Board vote. Douglas has released no contract price, funding source or contract end date. bostonglobe.com, August 24, 2026

No camera count, contract value or contract end date has been published by the town. Boston 25 News and Boston.com both reported the announcement without those figures.

Boston.com, August 26, 2026

Watertown News reported on December 11, 2025 that Proakis had signed the contract in September 2025 and that City Council President Mark Sideris asked to see the policy and wanted a public discussion through a council subcommittee before the cameras went live. Proakis said he would work with the Procurement Office on the steps to extract the city from the contract. The January 28 report gave privacy objections, ACLU concerns and federal data sharing as the reasons behind the reversal. No document reviewed gives the contract amount, the term length, the funding source, the retention period or a City Council vote approving the agreement. watertownmanews.com, December 11, 2025

Two were taken down earlier in 2026 and the last one was removed in early August 2026. An internal affairs investigation found Officer Jason Rogers, who joined the department in 2024, responsible for conduct unbecoming of an officer and improper use of an official position. The Globe reported he ran over 500 searches and repeatedly sought personal information about a Worcester County resident during 2024 and 2025 with no legitimate law enforcement reason. A criminal complaint was filed on July 17, 2026, Rogers was placed on paid leave within about 3 hours, moved to unpaid leave on July 31, 2026, and an employment hearing was set for August 26, 2026.

Coughlin raised the prospect of a bill for $30,000 if the town stayed in past the opt out window written into the memorandum of understanding with Flock. Police Chief Hicks apologized for how the pilot began and said the department is not sharing its data with anyone, adding that data practices would follow ACLU and Massachusetts Chiefs of Police Association guidance. A 1 year state grant had been awarded to pay for the program if it went beyond the pilot. The Swellesley Report wrote on February 1, 2026 that the board had been blindsided by the pilot. No source gives the number of readers installed, a signed contract amount, the grant program name or how each board member voted. natickreport.com, January 22, 2026

Minardi said the step came amid growing concerns about the use of this technology in the community. He also pointed to vandalism and theft involving the devices. Both reports place this Grafton among the Massachusetts communities ending Flock contracts, which separates it from Grafton, Wisconsin, which has its own page. Neither report states the contract amount, the contract term, the funding source, the retention period or any audit condition, and neither records a Select Board vote. bostonglobe.com, August 22, 2026

South Shore News reported on August 15, 2026 that the contract was signed on July 1, 2026, ran 3 years and cost about $38,000, made up of $3,000 per camera each year for 4 solar powered cameras plus a $2,000 installation and insurance fee. The money came from federal drug asset forfeiture funds, which required no local appropriation and no Town Meeting vote. Under the draft policy, unflagged data was purged after 30 days and the department would audit only 10 searches once a year covering a 6 month period, which residents called inadequate at the August 10, 2026 Select Board meeting. Select Board members Carole Julius, Peter Spagone and Katherine Mullen had given the department a budgetary green light in June 2026, but no source records a formal vote tally, so no roll call is given. southshore.news, August 15, 2026

This is the Easton Police Department of Easton in Bristol County, Massachusetts, based at 46 Lothrop Street in North Easton, and not Easton, Pennsylvania, which has its own page. The two reports differ on the end date, one giving the end of 2026 and the other October 2026, so no single contract end date is recorded here. Neither report states the contract amount, the funding source, the data retention period or any audit term, and neither records a Select Board vote on the termination. Hoodline, August 31, 2026

Bonney said officers understand that being a successful police department is not simply about having the most tools or the newest technology, and that the work is about maintaining the trust and confidence of the people we serve. Boston 25 News reported that officers questioned whether keeping the cameras justified the cost to public trust. On August 21, 2026 the town posted a notice that Town Manager Michael Maresco and Chief Bonney would take resident questions covering storage and security of the information, how long it is kept, and auditing and penalties for misuse. None of these documents state the contract amount, the number of cameras, the contract term or the funding source, and none records a Select Board vote. # record, August 21, 2026

Councilor Genevieve Oswald said she would be open to another reader system if Chief Ronald Montez Jr. found one with the data protections the community needs. Councilor Billy Romero said some constituents supported the technology. Councilor Darien Fernandez argued for the measure, saying the town should work to protect constitutional privacy in the face of emerging technology. Residents raised privacy and artificial intelligence concerns at the meeting. The $54,000 was the renewal that the council declined, not a sum the town paid, so no contract amount is given. Neither report gives the vote count, the original approval date, the contract end date or the funding source. kob.com, July 29, 2026

Police Chief Chris Crawforth told the council that Axon gives the city automatic purging of non-investigative data and sharing that is explicit, permission based and revocable. City Attorney Wes Duncan said Sparks released its Flock records to a public records requester because there was no legal basis to deny the request. Athar Haseebullah of the ACLU of Nevada said ending a Flock contract and awarding it to another reader company is a loss for the community. The state legislative interim Judiciary Committee voted in late August 2026 to request a reader bill draft for the 2027 session, which begins February 1. Neither report gives the Flock contract amount, the term length, or the date the agreement ended. thisisreno.com, July 24, 2026

Jacksonville Today reported the same day that Nassau County had announced it was discontinuing its license plate readers. Sheriff Bill Leeper said the agency welcomes the chance to work with local and state partners so the tools are used appropriately while protecting the rights and privacy of citizens. Neither report gives a contract value, a purchase date, or the body that approved the program. jaxtoday.org, August 31, 2026

Daniel Walker, deputy chief of staff to Mayor John Carney, said the city is removing the devices and that Wilmington does not participate in immigration enforcement. A City Council press release dated August 5, 2026 said the decision was made in part because of the ongoing public discussion surrounding the technology. Councilwoman Yolanda McCoy urged residents to stay informed, and Council President Ernest Congo II is named on the release. No council vote, dollar figure, contract term or completion date for the removal appears in either document. whyy.org, July 30, 2026

The Pasco County Commission voted to take the cameras off county land over the objection of Sheriff Chris Nocco. The Florida Department of Transportation order revoking approvals for cameras in state road rights of way set a 30 day removal deadline. No document reviewed gives the commission vote date, the tally, the contract term or any retention, sharing or audit condition. wusf.org, September 1, 2026

Chitwood said every one of his agency's cameras sits on a state road, which left nothing to keep running once the Florida Department of Transportation revoked rights of way approvals. Chitwood credited the readers with helping solve violent crimes and locate missing people, and said he hopes state lawmakers set rules for the technology. The statement gives no camera count, no contract price and no funding source. # record, August 31, 2026

Her office cited three cases from the prior year: a missing 76 year old woman from South Carolina found in Middleburg, a homicide suspect identified in a stabbing, and a 10 year old recovered in a custody interference case near the Florida and Alabama line that led to three arrests. The move followed the Florida Department of Transportation order revoking approvals for cameras in state road rights of way. No document reviewed gives the Clay County camera count, the contract price or the funding source. jaxtoday.org, August 31, 2026

JSO ran about 150 devices, counted in August 2026 as 141 fixed cameras and 9 mobile units. Jacksonville Today put the city's initial Flock contract at $114,000 for one year, with a clause requiring Flock to transfer all records to the city at no cost and destroy duplicate exempt or confidential records if the contract ends. Council member Jimmy Peluso held a public meeting on August 28, 2026 and is drafting rules for a 120 day moratorium on new cameras, a city permitting and inventory process, and Citizen Planning Advisory Committee sign-off before installation. Jacksonville has no public Flock transparency portal. No document reviewed shows a City Council vote approving the original contract. jaxtoday.org, August 6, 2026

The cameras had been in place on major county roadways since 2022. DeLoach acted after the Florida Department of Transportation revoked approvals for readers in state road rights of way.

At the August 19, 2026 meeting the commissioners heard residents and officials for and against the cameras, including Sheriff Ben Sites in support and District Attorney Ian Brink on the legal questions. Tri-State Alert reported the contract cost about $4,500 and came out of the sheriff's budget, which the commissioners approve. The county had already cut data retention from 30 days to 7 days. The published reports give no camera count, no contract start date and no exact expiration date. tristatealert.com, August 19, 2026

The Platte County Citizen describes the purchase as three license plate readers plus one regular camera at $45,000 over three years. KSHB reports the first camera was removed in February 2026 after only two days in place, that the city halted all future installations and removed the system after resident pushback, and that the purchase had been approved in the budget. Mayor Kirby told KCUR she was disappointed the city was not able to complete the process, as she felt it would be a beneficial tool for the police department. The Platte County Citizen counts 4 devices while KCUR and KSHB each describe 2 cameras; the count of 4 is used because the Citizen itemizes them as 3 readers plus 1 more camera. Weston is in Platte County, Missouri. plattecountycitizen.com, April 14, 2026

The contract had been set to run to December 2027 and was signed about seven months before the termination vote. Cameras went in during May 2026, roughly three months before the council reversed course, and the planned configuration was four reader cameras plus one pole camera carrying a live video feed. Data is held 30 days before a third party permanently deletes it. Mayor Tim Swadley, City Attorney Rick Manthe and Police Chief Brandon Hill are named in the coverage. Stoughton is reported as the seventh entity in Dane County to end or decline to renew a Flock contract. No numeric tally was reported for the unanimous vote, so none is stated here. stoughtonnews.com, July 29, 2026

The sheriff's office ran 12 county-owned Flock cameras; four more on Macon County school property were left out of the removal order, and commissioners asked that those be moved to school property only. Commissioner John Shearl made the motion to defund, Commissioner Barry Breeden seconded the removal motion, and Josh Young chaired the board. Sheriff Brent Holbrooks supported keeping the cameras and Chief Deputy Derek Jones spoke for the department. Smoky Mountain News reports the system logged 1 million to 3 million license plates a month, and that all Flock data is purged 30 days after recording and held in law enforcement custody. Under North Carolina law the data is confidential and may be disclosed only to authorized individuals for legitimate law enforcement purposes. Smoky Mountain News dates the vote July 15, 2026 and WLOS dates it July 16, 2026, so only the week is given. smokymountainnews.com, July 16, 2026

The Valley Breeze reports the contract was signed in December 2023 on a 60-month term at $5,000 a year, with a further $10,000 owed for the remaining two years, while the Boston Globe describes the same 2023 commitment as five years and $25,000 in total. The amount shown is $25,000 because that is the full-term figure both accounts reach. Data collected by the cameras was held 30 days before erasure. A resident petition carrying 385 signatures prompted the council to take the item up. Police Chief Jeffrey Jenison said the cameras had produced more than 50 successful outcomes and that they are designed to give police information after a crime rather than to monitor people. Neither account gives a camera count for Glocester. # record, August 6, 2026

Council Member Rogers moved to extend the pilot a year and form an advisory committee with two appointees per member, seconded by Council Member Croft; the motion failed with Croft and Rogers in favor and Wood, Arellano and Mayor Chase against. A second motion by Council Member Arellano to look at other reader vendors died for lack of a second. The minutes record a five-year retention period for reader data and state that there were no agreements with any agencies to share Lakewood's data. The pilot had run more than seven months when the council voted, and the minutes do not say whether it continued or stopped afterward. The city's own council recap describes the same action as a 3-2 vote not to move forward, while the minutes record it as a failed motion with 2 ayes and 3 nays; the $332,600 figure was proposed, not approved. # record, March 24, 2026

The legislation states Summit County entered a two-year agreement with Flock Safety for a total contract price of $92,100, with the city's reimbursement share set at $84,000 and reduced by any grant money the county received. Councilman DeVitis said $41,000 a year may not seem significant but that the city should have a significant say in how the tool is implemented, and that the county denied Green an out clause if Flock ownership changes while reportedly including one for itself. Council had originally approved the 14 cameras unanimously on April 23, 2024 at $52,000 up front plus $42,000 a year for the remaining two years of the policing contract, with $20,000 in county opioid settlement funds offsetting the first year. Data is held 30 days or for the duration of an active investigation and is owned by the Summit County Sheriff's Office. No roll call is given because the recorded votes are on a rejection rather than an approval. akron.com, April 23, 2024

Two were scheduled for removal in May 2026 and two in October 2026. Chief Dodge gave money as the reason, saying the entire city is under financial hardship, and said the cameras were going to come out this year anyway without grant funding. He said the cameras do not use facial recognition, that the department set data sharing to request only, and that it has not supplied and would not supply information to agencies such as ICE. Two cameras had been in place about three years and two about two years. At the Public Safety Commission meeting on January 29, 2026, Vice Chair David Moscaritolo and member Gary Braff said the commission was not consulted before the removal was announced. recorder.com, January 22, 2026

The town first authorized the program in September 2024, and a former councilmember said that authorization was for a one-year pilot with a guarantee that continuation would return to the council, which did not happen before a further two-year contract was issued. Four cameras were installed on Boston Road, Point Judith Road, Woodruff Avenue and near the Dillon Rotary, and one was stolen, leaving three working. Council President Alexander Menzies put early termination at roughly $12,600 for the final contract year plus any additional fee, and the town solicitor had not finished the financial review when the vote happened. Councilor Jason Colonies joined Menzies in placing the item on the agenda. The police chief opposed immediate cancellation and asked for a two-week delay. Objections centered on data sharing with other agencies and the 30-day retention period. upriseri.com, August 4, 2026

Mayor Jimmy Williams voted against all three amendments, Trustees Kelly Brunette, Matt Scollin and Aurora White voted for all three, and Trustee Sean Ryan backed termination but opposed the permanent bar and the report. The contract cost $72,000, covering installation plus a two-year subscription at $36,000 a year. The village was to receive 12 cameras, six Falcon readers and six Condor pan-tilt-zoom units, and three had been installed when the board voted. The cameras were announced publicly in February 2026, one month before the reversal. The money came from a $241,500 state law enforcement technology grant the board accepted in June 2024. adirondackdailyenterprise.com, March 1, 2026

The equipment was bought with a $49,000 grant that the Region 26 911 Center and Emergency Management Agency received from the Nebraska Emergency Management Agency in August 2025, funded by the Department of Homeland Security and intended to buy up to 14 cameras across the region. Valley County Board Chairman Jack VanSlyke said the cameras belong to the county rather than the city, so the county board had to take up the next step. Mayor Jeramy Sedlacek said he does not like a third party running the data and that the city cannot tell where the data goes. Region 26 Director Catie Larsen is named in the coverage. The cameras were still operating on August 4, 2026 despite the removal vote. Neither source gives a contract amount for Ord. 1011now.com, August 4, 2026

The board had already voted on July 28, 2026 to look for ways out of the contract. The program was paid for with a $54,000 Missouri Blue Shield grant, which the city may have to repay. The city has five Flock cameras and planned to bag them as soon as the termination notice went out. Alderman Alexis Neal said the main concern was not knowing what information is collected and who receives it. City Administrator Thomas Relford said he had an ethical problem with breaking the contract early, and KSMU reports the city has paid through the end of the current term and decided to lose that money. ky3.com, August 12, 2026

The city now has 22 Flock cameras and had planned to expand to 30. Searcy holds three separate Flock contracts ending in March 2027, April 2027 and October 2027. Police Chief Steve Hernandez said the department was not getting its money's worth, cited a lack of communication from Flock, and said only about 10 officers use the system. Council members Don Raney and Dale Brewer spoke in support of the department's position. The city is expected to send Flock a formal letter, and the council does not plan to replace the system. The sources give the vote day as August 11 and August 13, 2026 and the city had not published minutes, so only the week is given. whitecountycitizen.com, August 13, 2026

The city paid the annual invoice in March, a week and a half after a February 25 town hall showed broad opposition, and council members pressed the interim city administrator on why. Residents also disputed earlier statements that canceling would cost the city nothing. banderabulletin.com, May 20, 2026

Mayor Mike Rosen announced the cancellation at the May 26, 2026 council meeting, citing records showing federal agencies accessed the city’s network and a reported FBI plan to buy nationwide license plate reader access. At the October 1, 2024 business meeting Assistant Chief Rodney Sniffen presented the Flock proposal, funded by a $131,880 Washington Auto Theft Prevention Authority grant covering installation, maintenance and storage for two years at no cost to the city. Councilmember Olson moved to put the item on a future consent agenda for approval, and that motion passed 6 to 1 with Councilmember Nand opposed. That vote was not the approval itself, so it is not given as the approval date. The city agenda portal at edmondswa.primegov.com and the Laserfiche minutes archive both refuse automated reading, so the consent vote that followed has not been located. myedmondsnews.com, October 1, 2024

The county accepted a removal charge of up to $500 per camera, $3,000 in total. Sheriff Ruben Marté conferred with Thomas and agreed with ending the contract, per his office. Every path on the county's own host, www.co.monroe.in.us, fails automated reading because its certificate does not verify, and its homepage strips link targets, so the Agendas and Minutes section could not be opened. Nine alternate hosts were tested and none serves Monroe County, Indiana records. This is an access failure rather than a finding of absence: nothing was read either way about a county commissioners or county council action. bsquarebulletin.com, July 23, 2026

Council member Josh Jones was excused. One camera had been installed and activated before the vote without council approval, per Mayor Casey Hoffman. Whether the city owes an early-termination penalty was unresolved at the time of the report. ehextra.com, May 19, 2026

The proposal covered camera placement on a single city owned pole. Council members and residents cited the risk of data breaches, data brokering and the targeting of immigrants and racial minorities. Councilwoman Crystal Rose had pushed to table the resolution on December 10, 2025 pending guidance from city solicitors Joel Scheer and Jeremy F. Clark, and said adopting the technology without safeguards in place is dangerous. Lehigh Daily reported that Flock leases run about $2,500 to $3,000 per camera. The names of the 6 council members who voted no were not published in either report, and no exact vote date was given.

A records request by resident Eric Weiner showed the network was searched 590,000 times over 9 weeks starting in April 2025. Weiner is gathering signatures for an ordinance that would ban plate readers in town. The town's fact sheet states that Windsor has 16 Flock cameras installed throughout town for a total annual cost of $48,000, at $3,000 per camera per year including installation, software and maintenance, paid from $18,000 in General Fund dollars and $30,000 in non-tax dollars. The town posts the Flock lease agreement itself, but it is a scanned image with no readable text. No record of an original Town Council vote approving the contract appears in the town's agenda archive. What is on record is the end of it. On July 6, 2026 Councilor Pelkey moved and Councilor Gluck Hoffman seconded a motion to reactivate the cameras and renew the annual contract with Flock Safety, and it failed 4 to 5, with Mayor Black-Burke, Deputy Mayor Klase and Councilors Armstrong, Naeem and King opposed. source

The published agenda listed item 8.b as discussion and possible direction for a citizen working group on ALPR policies, so the termination came out of that item rather than a noticed termination item. KNAU reports 11 cameras had been installed over the summer and quotes Vice Mayor Holli Ploog saying a company that denied data sharing on August 13 and admitted it on August 19 is not a company the city can do business with. At the August 13, 2025 meeting the council had already directed staff by consensus to switch the system off, provide a timeline of past ALPR discussions and form a citizen work group. No city document states a removal deadline, an original approval date or a contract amount. An earlier version of this page gave a 30-day removal deadline; no document supports it, and it has been removed. # record, September 9, 2025

Contract amount, camera count, end date, and the original approval record are being researched from city records. The council voted 4 to 0 on July 28, 2026 to end the contract. The resolution directs staff to terminate the agreement, stop using the fixed camera system within 7 days, and work with Flock on removal; the council said the benefits were outweighed by concerns about privacy, equity, data security, and public trust. It also bars the city from buying or running a future fixed plate-reader system without council approval at a public meeting and funding through the annual budget. WHSV, July 15, 2026

Exact end date pending contract records. The council vote was unanimous. Police had turned the cameras off in October 2025 after learning outside agencies could run searches on the system, and a University of Washington report found out-of-state agencies accessed the network in ways consistent with immigration enforcement.

The police department's release states that 25 cameras are being deployed across Springfield at an annual cost of $77,000, with Criminal Justice Commission grant funds covering that through 2027. The city's October 20, 2025 council agenda item asked only that council review the information and advise on use, which made it an update rather than an approval. A full-text search of Springfield's agenda system from 2024 to 2026 returns that single Flock item, so no ordinance, resolution or consent vote authorized the purchase. The buy rode an Omnia Partners cooperative contract, which is why the route is recorded as a co-op contract. The sources state no execution date, term or end date, and no approval date. # record, September 26, 2025
