# Flock LPR Renewal (Resolution 16,846)
The October 21, 2025 City of Little Rock Board of Directors resolution authorizing a **$690,000, 24-month renewal** of LRPD's Flock Safety automatic-license-plate-reader (LPR) subscription — **115 Flock Falcon cameras** at **$345,000 per year**, procured through **Insight Public Sector, Inc.** on the **OMNIA Partners cooperative contract #23-6692-03** (Cobb County, Georgia lead). The renewal consolidates three previously separate annual invoices into one. The current contract supersedes Res. 16,489 (November 4, 2024); the 2024 Master Service Agreement underneath is dated October 15, 2024.
## What's inside (the document cluster)
The Flock Safety document chain in [[CLR-2026-778]] spans 10 files documenting the renewal process from the September 2025 originating memo through the October 21 Board resolution:
1. **`2024.10.15 Master Service Agreement - FULLY EXECUTED.pdf`** — the underlying Flock MSA (45,740 bytes extracted text). Byte-identical to the Pilot Service Agreement file (see Open Question below).
2. **`Pilot Service Agreement 10.15.24 - FULLY EXECUTED.pdf`** — byte-identical to the MSA above (45,740 bytes); apparent duplicate.
3. **`2025.09.08 LRPD Memorandum regarding Flock License Plate Reader Software Contract Renewal.pdf`** — Sgt. James Phillips (Real-Time Crime Center) → Lt. Courtney Bewley (Technology & Equipment), 2025-09-08. The originating memo.
4. **`2025.09.09 LRPD Memorandum regarding Flock License Plate Reader Software Renewal.pdf`** — Major Jonathan Prater → Asst Chief Michael Miller, 2025-09-09. (See Open Question below.)
5. **`2025.10.09 LRPD Memorandum regarding Flock License Plate Reader Software Renewal.pdf`** — appears to be a duplicate or re-routing of the September 9 Prater memo.
6. **`2025.09.30 IT Technology Approval Form for Flock LPR Contract Renewal.pdf`** — CIO Abdoul Kabaou approval, e-signed via Adobe Sign (Transaction ID `CBJCHBCAABAAhTT0l27M6XbfTbUwSaMikELvOHLpDXIV`); document created 2025-09-30 by Edward Harris.
7. **`2025.10.31 CAO Memorandum regarding Flock Contract Renewal.pdf`** — Senior Deputy City Attorney [[Sherri Latimer]] to City Manager [[Delphone Hubbard]], 2025-10-31. The EULA-risk memo.
8. **`2025.10.31 Flock Safety LPR Camera Software Quote 0228803339 and EULA - CM APPROVED.pdf`** — Insight Public Sector quote on the OMNIA Partners contract (44,777 bytes); CM = City Manager approved.
9. **`202510.31 Flock Safety LPR Camera Softw...0228803339 and EULA - CM APPROVED.pdf`** — near-identical second copy of the same quote (43,259 bytes; slight extraction variance suggests this is a re-saved version of the same Flock quote).
10. **`2025.10.21 Resolution No. 16846.pdf`** — the Board resolution itself.
## Key takeaways
### Money, term, camera count
- **$690,000 / 24 months** total; **two annual payments of $345,000** each.
- **115 Flock Falcon LPR cameras** (model `FLCK-FALCON-2-LE`).
- Annualized at **$3,000/camera/year** — the standard Flock per-camera-per-year pricing.
- **OMNIA Partners contract #23-6692-03** (Cobb County GA lead) is the cooperative-purchasing vehicle.
- **Insight Public Sector, Inc.** is the reseller; Insight rep **Shane Hanna** is the named "Main Contact" on the quote.
- **Funding account: 105225-63360** — a general-fund line (not the asset-forfeiture / Seized Funds account that funded [[Fusus]]).
- **30-day data retention** specified in the renewal terms (within the 150-day cap set by the [[Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act]]).
- **Explicit Real-Time Crime Center designation.** The Phillips memo originates the renewal in the **RTCC**; the cameras are operationally tasked to the RTCC, not a precinct.
### Consolidation and the dropped Flex LPRs
The 2025-09-08 originating memo from Sgt. Phillips makes two procedural changes:
> "Previously, the Department managed three separate invoices throughout the year, the new contract consolidates these into a single annual invoice." (Tier-1 corpus, 2025-09-08 Phillips memo)
> "Flex LPR cameras were not included in the new contract due to cost considerations and the equipment not fully meeting the Department's operational needs, resulting in savings of approximately $35,000." (Tier-1 corpus, same)
The "Flex" LPR is a non-Falcon Flock product (probably the trailer-mounted mobile cameras). Their removal saved ~$35,000 against the prior comparable cycle.
### The Latimer EULA-risk memo
The October 31, 2025 memo from Senior Deputy City Attorney [[Sherri Latimer]] to City Manager [[Delphone Hubbard]] flags four EULA provisions for the City Manager's awareness:
> "In the event of a manufacturer defect, the City's some remedy [sic] is for Flock to make a commercially reasonable effort to repair or replace the defect. (¶¶8.1; 8.3) / The vendor's warranties are severely limited. (¶8.4) / The vendor's liability is severely limited. (§9.1) / In the event of suit, the City must indemnify Flock. (§9.4) / Know that such provisions are commonplace and it will be a business decision on your part whether or not to enter into this agreement." (Tier-1 corpus, 2025-10-31 Latimer memo)
The memo confirms that the City Attorney's Office reviewed the EULA but framed the four flagged provisions as commonplace and a "business decision" rather than a legal objection.
### The MSA — Arkansas ALPR Act incorporation
The 2024-10-15 Flock MSA underneath this renewal **expressly incorporates the Arkansas Automatic License Plate Reader System Act** (Ark. Code §§ 12-12-1801–1808) in §4.4 — including the 150-day retention cap, the OMV/ACIC/NCIC/FBI comparison-only requirement, and the audit-log discipline. §5.1 acknowledges Arkansas FOIA. §11.15 is a non-appropriation clause identical to the pattern that Flock uses in [[2024-12 Flock End-of-Year Discount Offered]] at Conway (see [[Non-Appropriation Clause as Sales Tool]]).

## Open questions / follow-ups
- **The September 9 vs October 9 Prater memo duplicate.** Two files in the production have identical content but September and October dates. The most likely explanation is that the memo was re-dated in the routing chain; this is a documentary anomaly, not a substantive contradiction.
- **The 116-vs-115 camera count.** The Arkansas Times news article archived 2026-05-19 (web research 2026-05-19, [Arkansas Times LRPD Flock article](../../../../web%20archive/2026-05-19/arktimes.com/little-rock-police-track-you-with-116-license-plate-readers-citywide-we-mapped-them-all.md)) reports the renewal as covering **116** cameras; the [[CLR-2026-778]] documents (Insight quote and Resolution 16,846) consistently report **115**. The discrepancy is small but worth noting; the Tier-1 corpus figure (115) controls in the wiki.
- **The MSA vs Pilot Service Agreement byte-identical duplicate.** The two files have identical extracted text. The most likely explanation is that Flock's templating produces the MSA as a renaming of the Pilot Service Agreement once the customer is no longer in a trial; this is a routine documentary artifact, not a substantive contradiction.
- **The 2024-11-04 Resolution 16,489 contents.** Referenced in Resolution 16,846 as a prior authorization superseded by this renewal. The 16,489 resolution is not in the production.
- **The 2023-02-07 Resolution 15,892 contents.** Referenced as a prior authorization repealed by 16,846. Also not in the production.
- **Whether the Falcon hardware is still LRPD-owned or has been replaced.** The 115 cameras have been in service since 2020 (per the Resolution); their physical hardware lifecycle and warranty status is not addressed in the renewal documents.
