Council authorizes contract with Flock Safety for license-plate readers; staff says grant covers cost
Summary
Council voted to authorize a contract with Flock Safety for automatic license-plate readers and associated livestream cameras, citing a grant and an early sign-on savings of about $6,500.
Council voted to enter into a contract with Flock Safety for automatic license-plate reader cameras contingent on legal and financial review and to authorize the city manager to sign.
Staff described the purchase as an extension of an ongoing grant and said accepting the contract before year-end produces a sign-on savings of roughly $6,500. The package discussed included 10 additional 'flat' cameras and 10 fixed cameras intended for livestreaming; staff said there would be no extra recurring cost beyond the grant-contracted scope.
A council member moved to approve and roll-call votes were recorded in favor. The council’s action authorizes staff to finalize the contract following required legal and financial review.
No privacy policies, ordinances, or public-comment objections about the cameras were recorded in the transcript.
