The state order is not a county ban.

State enforcement — EOM 26-01 — pulls LPR off State Highway System right-of-way in every county. An office that says it will comply is obeying FDOT. That is not a vote to end cameras on county roads or city streets. Local policy is a separate choice on dirt that office actually controls. Some ended or paused those programs. Many have said they will keep operating on their own recognizance. Silence is Unproven either way.

All 67 counties

Three layers, same 67 counties. Unofficial: OSM / DeFlock tags. State order: EOM 26-01 on State Highway System right-of-way — every county. Local policy: what a sheriff or council did on county roads and city streets. Complying with FDOT is not a local ban. Silence on local dirt is Unproven.

SupportedEvidence
OpenStreetMap / DeFlock ALPR tags appear in all 67 Florida counties in the 31 August 2026 pull — from 5 tags (Levy, Madison) to 1,082 (Broward). No county is recorded here as unused.

A tag is not a permit and not proof the county sheriff operates the camera. Most nodes are untagged. Zero tags would still not prove a county has no LPR — coverage is uneven. This briefing has no official unused-county roster.

State order vs local policy

All 67 counties sit under the FDOT State Highway System order. 14 have a retrieved local policy change (county roads or city streets). The rest have no local-program announcement — that is Unproven, not “still running,” and not “banned LPR.” A sheriff who says they will comply with FDOT has not, by that sentence, ended cameras on their own roads.

SupportedEvidence
After EOM 26-01, some Florida sheriffs and city councils announced ending, removing, or pausing LPR programs on county and city roads — which the memo does not, by its terms, require.

Each locality is a separate policy on county or city dirt. Scope varies (whole program vs county ROW vs a pause). Complying with EOM 26-01 on State Highway System right-of-way is not this claim. Private-property cameras are generally untouched. This is a 1 Sept 2026 scan, not a complete roster of 67 counties.

SupportedInference
A county or city that only takes cameras off State Highway System right-of-way is complying with FDOT, not independently banning LPR on local streets.

Nassau’s 34 cameras are the FDOT order on state-highway right-of-way; the sheriff said the office remains committed to other technology. Volusia’s sheriff said all of his office’s cameras were on state roads, so a “countywide shutdown” may be SHS compliance in fact. Always read the scope line.

eom-26-01 · nbc-2026-08-31 · fox35-fallout-2026-08-31

The memo still does not, by its terms, take cameras off city streets or private property. See the briefing. Local governments remain free, on their own ROW, to keep, move, or take down devices under local policy. That is outside this memo.

State-order compliance — not a local ban

These offices named cameras on State Highway System right-of-way, or access to state-owned readers. That is EOM 26-01. It does not, by its terms, turn off readers on county roads, city streets, or private property. If they still run LPR on their own dirt, that is a local policy — Unproven here unless it appears in the next list.

    While NCSO will comply with FDOT’s directive, we remain committed to utilizing technology and other resources that help protect our community and support our deputies in their work.

    Office statement: the 34 Flock cameras sit in state-highway right-of-way; NCSO will adhere to EOM 26-01. That is the FDOT order, not a Nassau program cancellation. News4JAX paraphrased it as stopping 34 cameras countywide — the paraphrase is not packed as a local ban. Recoded 1 Sept 2026 from ended/full_program to SHS compliance only.

    Effective immediately, we are shutting down License Plate Readers in Volusia County.

    Sheriff’s own post. FOX 35 later quoted him saying all of the office’s cameras were on state roads, so the FDOT order put the program “out of business.” Countywide shutdown may therefore equal SHS compliance in practice.

One secondary writeup is not enough to treat these as Supported.

  • Jefferson County. ClickOrlando wrote that Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office “revealed they have taken down their license-plate readers.” No named sheriff quote or office release was retrieved in this scan. clickorlando-2026-08-31

Fifty-one counties had no retrieved local-policy announcement as of this scan. They are still under the state SHS order. Absence of a press hit is not proof they shut cameras on county roads — and not proof they kept them. OSM tags in those counties are still not a permit roster.
