From the meeting
At its October 20, 2026 meeting, the Common Council approved a resolution directing the city and police department to take all legally available steps to permanently terminate the Flock Safety contract at the earliest possible opportunity. The resolution also ordered an immediate suspension of Flock cameras and databases, directed Flock to remove ALPR hardware within two weeks, and barred new ALPR contracting until a public hearing and guardrails are adopted. The mayor said the city had used Flock since 2021 and raised safety concerns about ending it quickly.
Decision state: approved.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
