The Robinson City Council approved, as part of the consent agenda, a contract authorizing the city manager to sign with Flock Safety to install 11 license-plate reader cameras. The authorization was included in the meeting’s consent items and approved by voice vote.

During the consent discussion council members noted the purchase had been previously discussed and that funding would come from a combination of rent and seizure funds, with rent paying roughly two-thirds of the cost and seizure funds covering the remaining third. Councilmembers asked about whether camera locations would be publicly identified; that specific deployment detail was not provided in the meeting minutes.

The consent motion also included approval of minutes and the ordinance to call the Nov. 4 general election as a joint election with McLennan County. The license-plate reader contract authorization was adopted with the rest of the consent agenda items by voice vote.
