Flock & ALPR Cameras in Milaca, Minnesota

Volunteers have reported 3 automated license plate readers in and around Milaca — cameras that log every passing plate with a time and location.

Jurisdiction · by recorded street address

The 4 cameras counted on this page are every reader mapped within about 20 kilometres of Milaca, so the count crosses municipal lines. By the street address recorded for each one, 0 of them sit inside Milaca itself.

The rest sit in Milaca Township (2), Dalbo Township (1), South Fork Township (1).

3 of them name an operator in the record: Mille Lacs County Sheriffs Office (3). The operator is who runs the camera, which is not always the local government.

What’s watching Milaca
