# Arkansas Department of Transportation Arkansas agency responsible here for state-highway camera permitting and promulgating 12 CAR 150. ARDOT adapted ASP's operational rules and separately administers engineering review for cameras inside state right-of-way ([[ASP Policy and ARDOT Drafting Correspondence]], p. 1; [[ARDOT State Right-of-Way Camera Guidance]], pp. 1-2). ## People - [[Michelle Davenport]] — Chief Legal Counsel and tracked-rules editor. - [[Gill Rogers]] — Governmental Relations Officer and public-comment contact. - [[Robert Pruss]] — document creator named in the supplemental DOCX metadata; exact role unverified. - [[James E. Patrick II]] — last modifier named in the completed disposition-workbook metadata; exact role unverified. - [[Angela K. Bettis]] — Advanced District 6 Permit Officer; Sherwood application and retrospective-permit handling. - [[Kelsey R. Kumpe]] — District 6 Permit Officer; Sherwood permit signatures and completion/inspection routing. - [[Hau V. Ho]] — TSMO Engineer; Sherwood plan review. - [[Baron D. Davis]] — TSMO Traffic Operations Engineer; permit and change-order review. - [[Stacy G. Burge]] — District Nine Engineer; Benton County P1873 special-permit and standing-bond records. - [[Joseph D. Hawkins]] — TSMO Division Head named in Benton P1873 and signer on other produced TCD permits. ## Roles in this corpus West Memphis's first production adds Traffic Control Device Permit 1987, issued 2026-05-14 for three ALPR points on Highways 70, 77, and 191. The approved engineering plan supplies exact coordinates and requires a completion notice, final inspection, and notice of final acceptance; the production contains no separate closeout record ([[West Memphis ARDOT Permit 1987 and Camera Locations]]). The supplemental record shows ARDOT moving from comment intake to recorded decisions. It rejected all general citizen/privacy objections and Axon's bond exemption, declined one BLR definition change, modified two BLR-driven clarifications, and accepted one statutory-citation correction ([[July 10 2026 Public Comment Dispositions]], `Sheet1!C2:E16`). The resulting July draft is not a complete merge of the prior March-format branch, which is tracked as [[T008 - Post-Comment LPR Rule Version Divergence]]. L000259 documents the separate site-permitting role in practice. It shows issued Sherwood TCD and special permits alongside application-only files, sites removed from ARDOT review, retrospective permit work, blank closeout fields, and unresolved completion chronology ([[ardot/l000259-sherwood-alpr-permits-2026-07-15/_overview|ARDOT L000259 Sherwood ALPR Permit Production]]). The 506-row CSV is a broad traffic-control-device export and is not treated as a complete statewide ALPR index ([[Statewide Traffic Control Devices Export]]). Hot Springs production `26-917` first supplied an approved-as-noted ten-site plan and an applicant-blank municipal permit copy. ARDOT's later R033097 response supplies both TCD signatures, the signed District special permit, and Flock bond receipt, resolving T019's signature conflict. The plan sites and nearby statewide-export rows remain separate coordinate records, while installation, inspection, acceptance, and current operation remain unestablished ([[Hot Springs P1977 Flock Camera Plan]]; [[Hot Springs P1977 Countersigned Permits and Execution Chain]]; [[T054 - Hot Springs P1977 Executed Authorization vs Missing Closeout and Operational Proof]]). Jacksonville's first production adds a fully signed page of TCD Permit 1916 and the later six-page `SP-06-2026-0005` packet for F#003 and F#008. The special-permit letter conditionally grants installation and records a $2,000 standing bond, while its acknowledgement and completion fields are blank. Jacksonville's later Flock export lists both cameras at near-matching higher-precision coordinates, but no inspection or acceptance record was produced ([[Jacksonville ARDOT Permit 1916 and SP-06-2026-0005]]). Lonoke County's first production adds Permit 1924 and a six-site engineering package. The permit was issued 2025-10-06 for six ALPRs and signed by both parties on 2025-10-07. Its plan supplies six exact coordinates and shows paired products at three sites, while the production supplies no separate preconstruction, inspection, acceptance, or as-built record ([[Lonoke County Flock Contract ARDOT Permit and Camera Locations]]). Jonesboro's completion production adds five full permit packets covering eleven ALPR points. The City returned signed completion sheets for P1881 on 2025-06-30, P1889 and P1969 on 2026-04-16, and P1967 and P1982 on 2026-07-22. Those municipal returns do not establish ARDOT inspection, acceptance, or present operation. P1969's return also conflicts with the statewide export's `Pend Sign` label at the same point; see [[T038 - Jonesboro P1969 Completion Return vs Pending-Sign Export]]. Benton County's P1873 supplement adds a District Nine permit and final engineering plan for a Highway 12/Gentry Flock relocation at `36.276600, -94.579146`, looking southeast. The plan point is 7.2 meters from ARDOT's P1873 GIS row, while the packet's completion-return sheet is blank; authorization and plan location therefore remain distinct from closeout and as-built status ([[Benton County P1873 Flock Relocation Permit]], pp. 6, 11). ## Van Buren Permits 1866 and 1876 Van Buren's agency-produced packet adds three executed permit/location crosswalks to the statewide export. Permit 1866 identifies Main Street at 8th Street; Permit 1876 identifies Highway 59 at River Road and Highway 162 at 46th Street and supplies two device-level plan coordinates. The map retains the three ARDOT GIS/export values and the two plan values as separate documentary stages ([[Van Buren ARDOT Flock Permits 1866 and 1876]]; [[Statewide Traffic Control Devices Export]]).
