I will initiate another work order to get the LPR at #38 SB Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon replaced. I will also go ahead and waive this replacement fee, since the LPR we installed on 9/22 was vandalized again in less than a week. Once the work order is created, I will keep you in the loop regarding when the site visit is scheduled. I am also going to request that the LPR be installed as high as possible without compromising functionality. I know we have increased the height already in the past, so it may already be at max height, but if there is any more wiggle room, we will take it. Please let me know if you have any questions at this time!

I just wanted to float that idea out as a potential option that has worked for other customers. I can address the other questions you had below: Replacement cost of standard LPR: * The cost to replace the standard LPR that is currently in use is $800. * Reference: Reinstall Fee Schedule <https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fwww.flocksafety.com%2freinstall-fee-schedule&c=E,1,pkEdP2iWumQHwUYGGmxNa2bkTvTg2SYf1Eb5WabM-oVAFIVnoQaYj7x3uW 1XycS5HkGz3xGq4d12uqyDqCoEz6CJ-G0AgZDfiQoTdwjlxcv_xaY99kmO&typo=1> * Given the recent replacement history of this camera location, I have elected to waive the most recent replacement fee. * This camera has been spray-painted & replaced 3 times since July * The most recent replacement was completed on 9/22, and by 9/26, that camera was blacked out again. * Each time we replace it, it has been vandalized again in a matter of days, which does transition perfectly into your next question. Are there any nearby locations where this equipment could be moved to? * We have a team that specializes in relocating equipment. I will provide a short list of questions below that will help move that process forward if you are interested. * Note - The replacement fee has been waived, but there are some fees associated with relocations that will still apply due to the additional work required. * If you are interested in pursuing this option, please fill these questions out and I will get you connected with our Relocation team. RELO Questions: * Which camera (please include the number) would you like to have relocated? * #38 SB Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon * What is the motivation or goal for relocating this camera? * Repeated instances of vandalism * Where would you like to relocate the camera? Please provide coordinates and/or a mark on an aerial view map. * [insert answer] * Which direction of travel would you like to capture? * [insert answer] * Is the camera going on an existing pole (light pole, utility pole, etc.) or a Flock pole? * [insert answer] * Do you agree to pay the relocation fee of $350 for an existing pole, $750 for a Flock pole, or $2,000 for an Advanced Flock pole (X2/DOT)? * [insert answer] * Who is our point of contact for this relocation? Please provide their name and email. * [insert answer] Just so you know, if a permit is needed, we may request additional documentation. The permitting process may prolong the timeline.

It sounds like we probably need to change this camera to a Flock Safety Long Range LPR <https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=h ttps%3a%2f%2fcontent.flocksafety.com%2fi%2fuSCeFupJoFRUjJ___dPLUSSIGNVAPLUSSIGNa3yoeW94jKpiPLUSSIGNyjNWT2yvEks7CFubl26C___2PmbWldADyQJqKWs4JE1___8___NRHu5ZKhxvzVsvaLFq1zW2vfu9md33mwolfmzKhUxo5Ws0YAEo g&c=E,1,q62IjJ8loUnOGVMhjktXzSUdaan1yw4u_FA8GaIzxaIgl60N2gzmjXw8dec8EeJnMs9xNxnj5EOrrWezyMiLJkaSvId29nhsuRwqUU6umUCdZAPYog,,&typo=1> to get it relocated to higher ground.

Exercise caution when opening attachments or clicking links, especially from unknown senders. Good morning, I have an update for you regarding camera location #38 SB Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon. We had a technician on site to replace this camera on 9/22. After just a few days, it appears that this camera was vandalized again. The last images captured are dated 9/26, and the lens appears to be blacked out (screenshot attached), which is consistent with the previous incidents of vandalism. Based on the history of work orders, it looks like this camera was replaced on 7/9/25, 8/19/25, and most recently on 9/22/25. Each time, we documented that the lens was covered with black paint. During the 8/19 replacement, our technician installed the equipment above the horizontal beam on the pole, but that did not prevent the next bout of vandalism that occurred between 9/22 and 9/26. Next Steps: Since we are coming up on a potential 4th replacement in less than 3 months at the Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon location, I have a couple of ideas: * We could look at relocating this equipment to a nearby area. * Another option we have seen success with when it comes to avoiding vandalism is to upgrade from a standard LPR to a Long Range LPR. * Standard LPRs need to be mounted ~12-16 feet off the ground for best performance. * Mounting above the horizontal arm on a traffic pole is very close to the maximum recommended height * A Long Range LPR could be installed at or near the top of that traffic pole, which would make the equipment much harder to tamper with. I'm sorry for the bad news, but I did want to present these options for your consideration. I have also included your CSM, Matthew Nicholass, on this email thread so he is aware of the ongoing vandalism to camera #38. Please let me know if either of these options interests you, and we can proceed accordingly.

Our Field Ops team has an open work order for this location. We have a site visit tentatively scheduled for 9/22. I am going to waive the replacement fee for this camera since you just had that LPR replaced in August. That replacement lens cover is an excellent idea. I will submit this feedback to our Product team for consideration; hopefully, a much more cost-effective solution can be achieved. I will be following the work order on my side and will be sure to reach out to you as soon as functionality has been restored to #38 SB Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon.

We received a ticket yesterday that one of your cameras has been damaged, but I do not see which location it was. I did some digging, and I'm wondering if it is camera location #38 SB Brea Canyon Cut Off @ Diamond Canyon. Based on past support tickets, it does appear that this location has been vandalized multiple times, most recently in August. Please let me know if #38 has been damaged/vandalized again. If so, I want to loop in your CSM since we are looking at multiple instances of the same location being vandalized. I know these replacements are tedious and expensive, and I do apologize for the inconvenience.
