From the meeting
At the October 12, 2026 Public Safety Committee meeting, Lakewood reviewed its Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR) use and privacy controls. The city said its current form has been in use since 2021 and its contract with Flock Group Inc. expires on July 24, 2028.
The committee said it will keep monitoring the policy and wants notice of major changes. This is useful incumbent intelligence for a future renewal or rebid conversation.

Questions about this project
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.
When will City of Lakewood issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks City of Lakewood's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
How can vendors engage with City of Lakewood before the RFP is published?
Vendors who reach out during the planning window can help shape requirements and build relationships with the decision-makers running the project. A free Civic IQ account sends you the pre-RFPs that fit what you sell, with the AI brief and the decision makers for the top matches in each digest.
