- Sioux Falls PD Policy #1036 (city page) runs Flock under a 30-day department retention rule — policy, not an ordinance. Rapid City PD deployed Axon ALPRs (April 2026). Aberdeen’s mayor declined installation (Aug. 2026). Minnehaha County’s motion to terminate Flock failed Sept. 1, 2026. No packed local ban ordinance.

- AG Jackley (Aug. 12, 2026) announced intent to propose 2027-session LPR safeguards. No bill number. A press release is not a bill. SDCL 32-28-17 bans red-light photo-monitoring contracts, not ALPRs.
Comment for this state
A city fight in South Dakota is still one of 19,000. A state ban is one of 50. Sign: https://orwellday.com/stop-flock-solution/
