## Appearances in the corpus
- [[Axon Field Trial Agreement and City Authorization]] — the 2025-11-20 "City of Fayetteville Staff Memo" recommending approval of the Axon field trial is addressed FROM "Tad Scott, Deputy Chief of Police" to Mayor Rawn; the drafter listed Scott as requestor because the Chief was out.

## Notes
Scott's staff memo is the document that carried the ALPR trial request from the Police Department to the Mayor's desk. It states there is "no cost for the field trial" — the budget framing that kept the matter off the City Council's agenda.
