Council authorizes Coulee Dam Police to buy Flock Safety cameras on Electric City's behalf
Summary
By unanimous consent the council authorized the Coulee Dam Police Department to act on behalf of Electric City to purchase Flock Safety automated license-plate reader cameras for the city.
The Electric City Council on Feb. 11 authorized the Coulee Dam Police Department to act on behalf of Electric City to purchase Flock Safety cameras for use in the city. The motion (M/S Redfield/Martin) carried by unanimous consent.
Minutes record the authorization but do not specify purchase cost, number of cameras, installation timeline or operating procedures. The decision allows the neighboring police department to complete procurement on Electric City's behalf; operational details and privacy or data-retention policies were not discussed in the minutes and may require follow-up.
Council did not record a separate vote tally by name beyond unanimous consent. Staff should provide camera counts, costs, and policy for use if the public or council requests further detail.
