Published findings

Told, enacted, signed

What the governing body was told before it voted, what it actually enacted, and what was signed — term by term. Click any value to read the passage it came from. A row marked silent is not a disagreement: it means only some of the three sources address that term at all, which is a different criticism and sometimes a fairer one.

Not on file: staff report, enactment. No ordinance or resolution authorising this contract has been located, so what the governing body approved cannot be compared against what was signed. That is a statement about the record we hold, not a finding that no vote occurred.

The rest of the stack

2 systems named in this jurisdiction’s procurement documents, 2 of which are documented as integrating with FlockOS. Plate readers are one layer; what a camera network is worth to an agency depends on what it is plugged into.

Licence-plate readers

  • Flock SafetyFlockOS
    “ess, destruction, use, modification or disclosure that are at least as protective as the "Flock Safety End to End Data Security Overview," "Flock Safety CJIS Compliance Overview," and "Flock S”the document

Cameras and video management

  • GenetecFlockOS
    “e Stadium in 2014. Stadium Manager is recommending an upgrade to the current Genetec Security Center and to procure additional Genetec software licenses including software s”the document

These are the systems named in the procurement documents we hold. A system listed here was written down in a document this jurisdiction published; that is not the same as a finding that the jurisdiction operates it, and a system missing from this list may simply have been bought under an item we have not read.

What we could not find

A gap means the record was not found on the jurisdiction's public portal. It is not a statement that the record does not exist, and it is not a statement about whether the jurisdiction operates ALPR.
