# Cabot PD Initial Flock Production On 2026-07-22, [[Steven Elliott]] sent a Google Drive folder containing what he described as everything the [[Cabot Police Department]] could locate "regarding Flock." The folder contained **51 files**—42 PDFs and nine PNGs totaling 72,361,963 bytes. The email did not call the request complete, issue a no-records or exemption determination, or dispose of the request's non-Flock camera-map categories; the response is therefore tracked as an **initial production with request status unconfirmed**. ## What's inside - [[Cabot Flock Camera Locations]] — eight numbered fixed-camera screenshots and one Flex screenshot, each with exact coordinates. - [[Cabot Flock Agreements and Purchase History]] — the initial six-camera agreement, two-camera expansion, Flex order, invoices, and a 17-record vendor-purchase report. - [[Cabot LPR Policy 305.1]] — the September 13, 2022 policy governing authorization, alert confirmation, data sharing, retention, and six-month public reporting. - [[Cabot Semiannual LPR Reports]] — seven public usage reports spanning January 2022 through June 2025. - [[Cabot Flock User Access Export]] — a July 21, 2026 export containing 140 user rows and role/permission/status fields. - [[Cabot ARDOT Permits and Deployment Plans]] — P1753, P1772/SP-06-2024-0004, and the preliminary #04 relocation plan. ## Key takeaways - **Nine produced site records reconcile to the procurement history.** The 2022 order bought six fixed Falcon cameras; the January 2023 expansion added two; the May 2024 Flex order added one. The location screenshots independently show eight numbered fixed sites and one Flex site ([[Cabot Flock Agreements and Purchase History]], `2022 Flock Agreement.pdf`, p. 2; `Cabot Expansion Agreement 2023.pdf`, p. 2; `Quote_Cabot PD Flex.pdf`, pp. 2-3; [[Cabot Flock Camera Locations]]). - **The Flex is demonstrably mobile.** A September 3, 2024 email says it was "Currently mounted on Campground"; a dashboard screenshot dated December 16, 2025 shows `CPD Flex - Ravell Rd` and `In Service - Case Open` ([[Cabot Flock Camera Locations]], `City of Cabot Mail - Flock Serial #_s complete list_Redacted.pdf`, p. 1; `Flex Location.png`). The production does not supply a complete Flex placement history. - **The access export is substantial but not a SharedNetworks export.** Of 140 accounts, 87 are active and 53 deactivated. Forty active accounts use non-Cabot domains; all 87 active rows show Search and Hotlist Tool enabled. The file does not identify camera/network scope or actual searches ([[Cabot Flock User Access Export]], full-file row reconstruction). - **Cabot's own policy is narrower than the unresolved access picture.** Policy 305.1 says captured plate data indicating evidence of an offense may be shared with other law-enforcement agencies and "may not be otherwise shared, sold, traded, or exchanged" (p. 3). Whether any non-Cabot account can search Cabot reads is not established; the evidentiary gap is tracked at [[T017 - Cabot Sharing Rule vs Unresolved External Account Scope]]. - **The reports document an Axon mobile-LPR period.** The July-December 2023 and January-June 2024 reports attribute 370 and 762 false alerts, respectively, to Mobile Axon LPR. The January-June 2025 report says the integration had ended because the Axon results "were inaccurate and provided almost all false hits" ([[Cabot Semiannual LPR Reports]], cited reports, p. 1). - **The 2024 report series has an unresolved accuracy problem.** Both half-year reports print the exact same 7,365,404 scan total, and the January-June report calls itself the "second half of 2024." See [[T016 - Cabot 2024 Semiannual LPR Report Accuracy]]. - **The requested sharing and audit exports are absent.** No SharedNetworks, Network Audit/history, retained search-audit export, search-reason report, `networkCount` definition, camera-level sharing file, or native CSV/GIS/KML camera map appears in the 51-file set. ## People and organizations mentioned - [[Cabot Police Department]] — Flock customer, policy issuer, and responding agency. - [[City of Cabot]] — contracting, purchasing, and ARDOT permit holder. - [[Flock Safety, Inc.]] — Falcon/Flex vendor and platform operator. - [[Axon Enterprise, Inc.]] — Mobile Axon LPR integration documented in the reports. - [[Arkansas State Police]] and Lonoke-area public-safety domains — represented among active user-domain aggregates; the export does not establish camera scope or actual use. - [[Jackie Davis]], [[Scott Steely]], [[Alex Latraverse]], and [[Steven Elliott]] — contract or response actors surfaced in the production. ## Concepts invoked - [[Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR)]] - [[Mobile (Vehicle-Mounted) ALPR]] - [[Flock Network Sharing - Hot Lists]] - [[Flock Audit Logs and Retention]] - [[Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act]] - [[ARDOT Right-of-Way Permitting for ALPR]] ## Events documented - [[2022-01 Cabot Executes Initial Six-Camera Flock Agreement]] - [[2023-01 Cabot Signs Two-Camera Flock Expansion]] - [[2024-05 Cabot Acquires Flock Flex Camera]] - [[2026-07 Cabot Sends Initial Flock Production]] ## Open questions and follow-ups - Is the request still open, and does the department consider the Drive folder a complete response? - Produce the native current and historical SharedNetworks/Network Audit exports, user/network/camera permission scope, and retained search-audit records actually held. - Produce the referenced underlying statistical spreadsheets and any July-December 2025 or January-June 2026 six-month reports that exist. - Produce the Axon mobile-LPR agreement, device/vehicle inventory, integration and termination records, policies, logs, and retained reports. - Produce a complete Flex placement history and the native camera/deployment export showing activation, relocation, service, removal, and current status. - Clarify whether the complete non-Flock City/department camera map was searched for, and identify any responsive fixed video, traffic, facility, RTCC, private-integration, or other recurring camera-location records.
