Verification Status
We don't yet have per-talkgroup data for Flushing Township Police from the RadioReference API. The encryption scope and type above come from the RadioReference Wiki, which is community-maintained rather than independently confirmed channel-by-channel. Our automated matching put this at low confidence (60%) based on how closely the wiki listing matches this agency's name and county.
If you monitor Flushing Township Police directly or have more current information, the fastest way to fix this is to update the RadioReference Wiki entry — our data pulls from there and from the RadioReference API on a regular refresh cycle.

This agency is listed in our database as encrypting all of its radio communications, including routine dispatch.

Why do agencies like Flushing Township Police encrypt their radio?
Officer safety and operational security are the reasons agencies give. What rarely comes with that explanation is Genesee County-specific evidence that open communications ever caused a problem, while the loss of public oversight and the friction with still-unencrypted neighboring agencies are both immediate and real.
Can Genesee County reverse the encryption decision?
Yes, and some departments already have. Because encryption here is a choice rather than a technical necessity, the path back runs through the same people who chose it: budget hearings, records requests, and residents who keep asking in public.
What can I do about Flushing Township Police encryption?
Contact the officials who oversee Flushing Township Police's budget directly and ask why full encryption was chosen over partial alternatives. Pair that with a FOIA request for recordings and policy records, and look for an existing coalition in Genesee County, or start one, since agencies respond differently to organized, sustained pressure than to individual complaints.
