# 2024-12 Contract Signed by Chief Harris via DocuSign
On or about **December 18, 2024**, Conway Police Chief [[Chris Harris]] signed the Flock Safety contract — the $180,000, 36-month, 20-camera ALPR agreement — by DocuSign electronic signature. Flock Territory Sales Manager [[Brittney Hall]] sent the DocuSign on or before 2024-12-17; [[Lt. Andrew Burningham]] confirmed on 2024-12-18 that "Chief was working on signing it." The signature falls five days after Chief Harris's 2024-12-13 pivot to asset-forfeiture funding, and roughly seven weeks before the January 2025 City Council meeting Harris had said would authorize that spend.
## Sources
- [[Contract to Legal Thread (Dec 2024 DocuSign)]] — the two-message thread anchoring the signature date: Hall's 2024-12-17 question whether Burningham "received the docusign," and Burningham's 2024-12-18 reply that "Chief was working on signing it."
- [[MSA via Cameras Thread]] — preserves the full Master Services Agreement text that was sent for "legal review" before signature, including the Section 11.15 non-appropriation clause.
- [[Flock Safety Order Form and Contract]] — the executed Order Form the signature placed into effect.
## Significance
- The contract was **executed before any City Council action** on the asset-forfeiture funding pivot. The [[Conway City Council]] had cut the cameras from the 2025 budget; Harris committed the agency to the three-year agreement in December 2024 and described the January 2025 Council meeting as a later approval step. The authorization sequence the corpus best supports runs vendor + Chief + Lieutenant → signed contract → asset-forfeiture spend → (later, separately) Council notification — not appropriation first.
- DocuSign is the contracting mechanism — an electronic signature returned to the vendor, with no paper instrument and no documented City Attorney legal-review record (see [[Contract to Legal Thread (Dec 2024 DocuSign)]]).
- The signature completes the December 2024 procurement sequence: the budget cut and asset-forfeiture pivot ([[2024-12 Harris Pivots to Asset Forfeiture]]) and the end-of-year discount and non-appropriation-clause offer ([[2024-12 Flock End-of-Year Discount Offered]]).
