From the meeting
At the September 1, 2026 meeting, Chief Jacobs said he was constantly reviewing Flock and was putting together a presentation about how Urbana uses the system. Council discussion showed the issue is still under review, with some members asking for another work session on the cameras and data handling. No new purchase was approved, but the current system remains a useful incumbent-intelligence lead.
The next decision point appears to be the requested presentation and any follow-up council review.

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.
