Oak Park terminated its eight-camera Flock ALPR program in August 2025

Oak Park’s official ALPR page states that eight Flock units entered service in August 2022, were renewed in June 2024, and were terminated by Village Board action on August 5, 2025. NoRec therefore records Flock as formerly used rather than an active Oak Park system.

PUBLIC RECORDS · FOIA

Records and official sources.

Primary government records are preferred. Where practical, NoRec keeps a local archival copy alongside the official source so citations remain auditable if a government URL later changes.
