The city of Madison does not operate any Flock cameras; under the city’s “surveillance devices” ordinance, any proposed contract would have to be approved by both the mayor and city council. Both the University of Wisconsin Police Department and Wisconsin State Capitol Police, which have primary jurisdiction on campus and near the Capitol, respectively, have contracts with Flock. The Capitol Police’s four cameras are located around the Capitol Square.
Marc Lovicott, spokesperson for UW police, declined to share the locations of the department’s eight cameras. He says the department automatically shares Flock data with other Wisconsin law enforcement agencies, but will only share data with other state and federal agencies upon request and on a “case-by-case basis.”
