# Benton County P1873 Flock Relocation Permit This 23-page packet combines ARDOT Traffic Control Device Permit 1873, District special-permit and bond records, a Sheriff's countywide authorization letter, and Flock's engineering drawings. It identifies one approved relocation plan on Highway 12 near Gentry but contains no completed closeout, final-inspection, acceptance, or as-built form. ## Permit sequence - TCD Permit 1873 was issued 2025-05-06 and expires 2026-05-06. It authorizes an `ALPR` at `"Hwy 12, Sec 1, Log Mile 0.218"` and instructs: `"Ensure pole is installed within ARDOT’s ROW"` (`P1873...Signed.pdf`, p. 1). - The District Nine letter dated 2025-05-21 says it is `"a permit to install Flock camera per TCD 1873 and approved drawings on ArDOT Right of Way"` (`P1873...Signed.pdf`, p. 3). It requires a `"$1000 - Flock Standing Bond"` and expires 2026-05-21 (p. 4). - The bond acknowledgment records a `$1000.00 Standing Bond` for `SP-09-2025-0021` (p. 5). - The completion sheet says `"Return this page when the work is complete"` and leaves `"Date Complete: / /"` blank (p. 6). The issued permit and approved plan establish authorization and design location. The blank completion sheet prevents treating the packet alone as proof of completed work, ARDOT acceptance, an as-built survey, or present operation. ## Exact plan location Plan sheet A.01 supplies: - `"#07 W HWY 12 @ GENTRY - RELOCATION"` - `36.276600, -94.579146` - `"LOOKING SOUTHEAST"` - `"LOG MILE: 0.218"`, route 12, section 1 - `"28' FROM FOG LINE"` and `"38' FROM ROAD CENTERLINE"` - `"POLE TO BE PLACED BEHIND EXISTING STREET SIGN"` Source: `P1873...Signed.pdf`, p. 11. The plan point is 7.2 meters from ARDOT's separate P1873 GIS/export point `36.276654, -94.579190`, which strongly crosswalks the statewide row to this permit and design site ([[Statewide Traffic Control Devices Export]], `TrafficControlDevices.csv`, line 199). The plan point is 181.3 meters from BCSO's separately disclosed site record 1 at `36.277285, -94.580981`; neither the packet nor the email states that those two locations are the same camera or successive lifecycle positions. All three source coordinates remain distinct. ## Countywide authorization letter The Sheriff's letter says it authorizes installation and operation of Flock cameras throughout Benton County, including incorporated and unincorporated areas. It also states: `"All law enforcement agencies operating within Benton County utilize these cameras as part of their investigative strategies"` (`P1873...Signed.pdf`, p. 7). That letter is a support/authorization instrument. It does not enumerate each agency, camera, account, permission, agreement, search, or outcome and is not treated as a substitute for tenant-level inventories or sharing records. ## People and organizations - [[Shawn Holloway]] — Benton County Sheriff and signer/authorizer on the countywide letter. - [[Stacy G.
