Gulfport residents: speak up at Thursday’s City Council meeting.

Public Comment • Thursday • 6:00 PM

Don’t let this contract roll into a 36-month renewal without an informed public review.

The countdown is a conservative planning estimate based on the October 28, 2025 City signature date. The contract ties the hardware term to first installation and validation, so the exact legal non-renewal deadline should be confirmed by the City.

Why This Matters

36-Month Renewal

If timely non-renewal notice is not given, the agreement provides for a three-year renewal term.

4,805 Logged Events

Thirty-four monthly public audit exports show 4,805 logged search / lookup events from November 2023 through August 25, 2026.

About 35.2% Without a Visible Case Number

About 1,690 of 4,805 events had no recognizable case number visible in either the public Case # field or the Reason field. This does not by itself establish an improper search.

City: “No Record Found”

The City reported “No Record Found” for several requested City-level categories, including multiple oversight, review, and evaluation records.

Up to 6,513 Networks

The highest logged Total Networks Searched value in the public audit records was 6,513. That reflects recorded search scope; it does not mean every network returned data or received Gulfport data.

913,566 Detection / Read Events

Analysis of the produced data calculated 913,566 detection / read events from July 27 through August 25, 2026 — about 30,452 per day. These are detections, not unique vehicles.

Questions Residents Should Ask

  • What is the exact non-renewal deadline?
  • What City-level legal, privacy, administrative, or Council review occurred outside the Police Department?
  • Has Council publicly reviewed the program’s contracts, audit records, sharing records, and renewal terms?
  • Should Gulfport continue into another three-year term before that review occurs?

Take Action

Attend Thursday’s meeting. Speak during public comment. Ask Council to have the City confirm the exact contract deadline and publicly review continuation or non-renewal before any three-year renewal term begins.
