Spokane, WA, October 27, 2026 —
The City of Spokane, Washington, is clarifying whether cameras deployed in the city are Flock cameras or Automatic License Plate Readers (ALPRs), according to the information available.
The clarification concerns how the deployed cameras are identified. The information provided does not say what prompted the question, which city department is addressing it, or whether the city has issued a final determination. It also does not specify how many cameras are involved or where they are located.
No additional details were provided about the cameras’ capabilities, how they are used, whether they are operated by the city or another party, or what policies may apply to them. The available information also does not establish whether “Flock cameras” and ALPRs are being used as separate categories in this case. Those distinctions remain unclear from the information provided.
The city’s clarification may help establish the terminology used to describe the deployed equipment, but no outcome or timeline for that clarification was supplied. No statements from city officials, documents, or other sources were included in the trend summary, so their views and any supporting explanation cannot be reported here.
For now, the central reported point is limited: Spokane is clarifying whether the cameras deployed in the city are Flock cameras or ALPRs. Further information about the devices, their status, and the city’s explanation was not provided.
