What the audit said

First audit of West Saint Paul PD's new Flock system (10 stationary units, operational 9/1/25–6/30/26). MNSec found the agency compliant on policy, retention (30-day Flock default), access control (inactive users confirmed deactivated), data classification, interagency sharing (a full month sampled, all justified), public log of use (monthly reports reviewed), BCA notification, and breach notification. No exceptions noted. Companion AXON-system audit filed the same season under LRL 261168.

FinePrint notes

Searched 2026-08-27: no ALPR audit found in LRL or via dorking. Program appears to have run only ~9 months: 4 Flock cameras live by Nov 2025 (10 planned), then the city suspended/removed the Flock contract ~Aug 25 2026 after council/community pushback (multiple news outlets, concurrent with this search). City's own internal review found 'no problematic usage' but that is not an independent 13.824 audit. Program's short lifespan likely explains why no biennial audit was ever due/filed. Recommend confirming via records request whether any audit was commissioned before the Aug 2026 shutdown.

Recorded findings appear in green because a finding is evidence the auditor actually examined the program. A report with nothing at all appears in red.

Every agency operating an ALPR in Minnesota must arrange an independent audit every two years under Minn. Stat. § 13.824, subd. 6.
