Licence-plate searches by Lisbon police¶
Six Connecticut towns have released the Flock audit log of every search run against their cameras. Below is what that record holds for Lisbon's own police department -- not a finding, just the log.
Town of Lisbon Troopers CT
- 8,658 searches between 2025-04 and 2026-08 (17 months with at least one search)
- 269 camera networks swept by the average single search
- 100% of them reached beyond Lisbon's own cameras
- The commonest stated reason is free text or a numeric code, rather than one of the preset categories Flock introduced in December 2025
Open Town of Lisbon Troopers CT's search dashboard -- every one of those searches, filterable by month, stated reason, search type and how far it reached, with a How to read this tab covering what each field means and what the record cannot tell you.
A floor, not a total. The record only sees queries that reached those six towns' cameras. A single Flock query typically sweeps thousands of networks at once, so most of a Connecticut department's searching does land in it -- but the real count is higher. Nothing in it names an officer, shows a plate, or records what any search returned.
Mentions by topic: first seen / most recent¶
Back to the meetings. Everything above this point was about licence-plate searches -- what the town's police looked up. Everything below is about what was said: each mention is a moment in a recorded public meeting where a surveillance technology came up, with a link to that moment in the video.
No surveillance-technology mentions found in this town's transcribed meetings yet.

Every finding in this report is a keyword match against exactly these files. Download them to check a quote in its full context, or to search for something this report's keyword list does not cover.
What's inside: one plain-text .txt file per meeting, named <date>_<video-id>_<meeting-title>.txt, plus a MANIFEST.txt giving the date range and how much of the town's video archive is transcribed.
How to use it
unzip lisbon-meeting-transcripts.zip -d lisbon
cd lisbon
# every meeting that mentions a term, with the surrounding line
grep -rin "license plate" .
# just the meeting dates, from the filenames
grep -ril "flock" . | sort
The filename's leading date is the meeting date, so a hit tells you which meeting to watch. Find that meeting in the Timeline below for a direct, timestamped link to that moment in the video.
These are machine-generated captions, not certified minutes. Expect mis-heard names and technical terms, and quote the video rather than the transcript when accuracy matters.
Generated 2026-09-27T15:29:12 from Lisbon's meeting transcripts and agenda documents. Home addresses spoken during public comment are redacted; see the archive MANIFEST for what that means.
