MOTION to add Flock Group DBA Flock Safety to the Fiscal Year 2025/2026 Standing Bid Waiver List.
end
Background:
Ledyard Police Depart and the Ledyard Emergency Communications Center are in the process of implementation of their Automated License Reader (APLR) project. Flock Group DBA Flock Safety is the sole provider of this service in our region and surrounding agencies including the Connecticut State Police, Groton Town, Groton City, Mashantucket, Norwich, and Stonington Police are all Flock Safety clients. To use the system most effectively for crime prevention and investigation, it is critical that we share and receive APLR data from our local and state law enforcement partners. The town’s initial cost for this project is expected to be approximately $12,000.
