Contract decision on record
In Sep 9, 2026, Tallahassee paused its Flock Safety program. Commission voted unanimously to suspend all of the city's roughly 150 fixed readers, Flock and Motorola alike, following the governor's ban on plate readers along state roadways and the Leon County Sheriff's Office's own suspension. Reported by WCTV.
Cameras can still appear in the record above after a decision like this one. These locations change only when a volunteer edits OpenStreetMap, and a decision date is not a removal date. See this decision in the cancellation tracker →

These locations were documented in the field by OpenStreetMap volunteers and refresh automatically every six hours. They are evidence of where cameras have been seen — not a complete or official inventory, and cameras may have been added or removed since documentation.
