Cameras on the map — paperwork missing.
We have no documented municipal deployment record for Gig Harbor, Washington. However, 9 individual ALPR camera locations mapped by OpenStreetMap contributors fall inside the municipal boundary, 9 of them source-tagged Flock Safety. Mapped camera locations are community evidence of hardware, not a record that the city owns or operates it.
OpenStreetMap contributors have mapped 9 individual ALPR camera locations whose coordinates fall inside the Gig Harbor, Washington municipal boundary — 9 of them source-tagged with Flock Safety branding. That is community evidence of hardware, not a government record of a deployment.
We do not currently have an official or EFF deployment record confirming that Gig Harbor owns, operates, purchased, or deployed these cameras.
Nothing on file. The EFF Atlas of Surveillance — our source for official and public-record evidence about agency and municipal ALPR use — contains no ALPR deployment record for Gig Harbor, Washington as of 2026-08-07. Absence of a record is not evidence that no deployment exists; it means no public record has reached the dataset.

The two-year contract expired Nov. 2 after police gave notice it would not be renewed, ending a year of contentious council meetings. The cameras had been switched off since May and covered since August; plate readers mounted in patrol and parking-enforcement vehicles were not part of the decision.

Renton's council declined both to direct non-renewal of the Flock contract and, narrowly, to switch the cameras back on, leaving them off pending a public town hall on the technology. The current contract expires in November, and several councilmembers said they would rather negotiate a new one than simply renew this one.
