Town of Normal Approves Drone as First Responder Program
The Town of Normal approved a resolution to waive the formal bidding process and authorize the purchase of the Flock drone as a first responder system for $50,000. This initiative is designed to enhance public safety services by providing drone capabilities for police, fire, and disaster operations. The program will begin with a pilot year, focusing on improving response times and situational awareness. Extensive training has been completed, and FAA waivers have been obtained. The system integrates with existing Flock Safety ALPR technology and includes transparency portals for public access to flight paths and call types, with data redaction for privacy. Data retention is set at 30 days, unless it's part of a criminal proceeding. The drone will operate at a maximum ceiling of 200 feet, with coordination for air traffic and life flight helicopters. The program aims to serve as a force multiplier and improve officer and firefighter safety. The town has a good relationship with Flock, and internal audits ensure data integrity and appropriate usage.
