Flock dominates 675 local-government ALPR and surveillance discussions in 90 days — a third already at contract stage

Asked:

“Find US city councils, county boards, and police departments that have publicly discussed automated license plate readers, surveillance cameras, or vehicle-related crime in the last 90 days. For each one give me: jurisdiction name and state, the governing body, the meeting or document date, what specifically was discussed, whether a dollar amount or budget line was mentioned and how much, any existing vendor named, and what stage it has reached — problem raised, study or pilot, budget allocated, solicitation issued, or contract awarded. One row per jurisdiction per document, with the source URL.”

A live-web scan surfaced 675 qualifying public documents and discussions across 397 city, town, village, borough, and county jurisdictions in 47 states, dated 2026-06-06 through 2026-09-04. 619 documents name a vendor; 45 carry an explicitly extracted dollar amount. Treat this as a web-discovered lead list, not an exhaustive census of every meeting.

Documents per normalized stage — counts as supplied in the data

Findings

Contract awarded is the single largest stage (233 documents), and many of those are cancellations, halts, or renewals under scrutiny — e.g. El Paso police halting Flock readers (elpasomatters.org).
California leads with 89 documents across 42 jurisdictions, ahead of Texas (65 / 37) — including a Santa Rosa community forum on plate cameras (ksro.com).
Only 3 of 675 documents sit at the solicitation-issued stage, so the pipeline jumps from study/budget straight to award in this record set.
The largest single extracted figure is $221.5 million; a typical council-level line is far smaller, like College Station's $400,000 Flock Safety contract vote (thebatt.com).

Web-discovered lead list: 675 documents/discussions, one row per jurisdiction per source document after URL and jurisdiction/date deduplication, covering 397 jurisdictions, 2026-06-06 to 2026-09-04. Date is the extracted meeting/document/action date, or the source publication date as fallback. “No amount stated” means no dollar figure was found in the extracted text, not proof no cost exists. Publication of a source does not by itself equal formal government action. Aggregate counts come precomputed with the data. Rows with amber tint carry an explicitly extracted dollar amount.
