Aug 2026 · Contract canceled
Cortland, IL
Town of Cortland Mayor Mark Pietrowski directed police on August 21, 2026 to cancel the town’s Flock contract for five license-plate reader cameras. The Daily Chronicle reported a work order for Flock to remove the cameras and poles, citing resident privacy concerns and third-party data use the town does not control. Officials also approved a new Axon body-worn and in-car camera contract. The mayor said stationary pole LPRs end and that vehicle LPR ability would stay under Cortland PD control without third-party Flock involvement.
