The Riley County Police Department paid Flock Safety $33,000 this year for access to its 11 surveillance cameras around town, according to documents obtained by The Mercury.
The police department in 2023 made an agreement with the company, which makes high-speed, computer-controlled cameras that capture license plate and vehicle information for investigations. The Mercury obtained that contract through a request under the state’s public-records law.
The initial order was for 12 months with a 24-month renewal term. That means the contract will be up for renewal at the end of 2026. The initial cost — that is, the total for the first year of service — was $43,400 and included hardware, an operating system and implementation services.
