Northlake council approves consent agenda including license-plate-reader contract, vehicle leases and regional animal-control study
Summary
The Town Council unanimously approved the consent agenda on Jan. 22, 2026, which included renewing and expanding license-plate-reader services with Flock Group Inc. (additional $60,000 per year; not-to-exceed $120,000 for remainder), police vehicle leases up to $480,624, surplus-property sale authorization, consent to creation of Municipal Management District No. 3, and a shared-cost animal-control feasibility study with Justin not to exceed $4,000.
The Northlake Town Council on Jan. 22 approved its consent agenda items (4.A–4.F) by a 7–0 vote. Councilmember Aaron Fowler moved approval; Mayor Pro Tem Maryl Lorencz seconded.
Approved consent items included: minutes for the Jan. 8 council meeting; a resolution authorizing the Town Manager to execute an amended purchase agreement/contract with Flock Group Inc. to renew and add license-plate-reader (LPR) services with an additional annual payment of $60,000 and a not-to-exceed $120,000 for the remainder of the current contract (Resolution No. 26-05); declaration of certain town property as surplus and authorization to sell it (Resolution No. 26-06); authorization for the Town Manager to execute lease agreements with Commercial Vehicle Leasing LLC d/b/a D&M Leasing for police vehicles in an amount not to exceed $480,624 (Resolution No. 26-07); council consent to creation of Northlake Municipal Management District No. 3 (Resolution No. 26-08); and approval of an Interlocal Agreement with the City of Justin to participate in a regional animal control feasibility study and share costs not to exceed $4,000 (Resolution No. 26-09).
The minutes record the motions and a unanimous vote, but the transcript excerpt does not include additional discussion about LPR policy, privacy safeguards, vehicle lease terms beyond the not-to-exceed amount, or the content of the animal-control study. Those supporting documents and contracts should be available in the town's posted agenda packet.
