Does Lafayette have Flock cameras?
Yes. Lafayette CO PD operates 30 Flock Safety automatic license plate readers, according to the transparency portal Flock publishes for the agency. Every figure on this page comes from that portal — none of it is estimated, and the ones the agency does not publish are simply absent.

Plate reads collected by Lafayette CO PD are held for 30 days before deletion. Retention is the number that decides how much of your ordinary driving is searchable at any moment — a 30-day window means a month of your movements, not just the day you were near a camera.
The portal reports 142 searches of that data in the most recent 30-day window, against 331,606 vehicle detections over the same period.
It also reports 3,464 hotlist hits — reads that matched a list the agency or one of its partners had loaded.
85 outside organizations have access to this agency’s plate data. Sharing is the part of ALPR that surprises people most: a read collected on your street is searchable by departments you have never heard of and never voted for.
Blank fields mean the agency does not publish that number, not that the number is zero.
