Agency record
Duluth Police Department
MN · Municipal Police · 86,372 residents
The Duluth Police Department subscribes to the LexisNexis Accurint Virtual Crime Center. Two of its agreements appear in the public record, and neither is signed.
The 2020 agreement, attached to city council resolution 20-0345R, contains the read-only "NO DATA CONTRIBUTIONS TO PSDEX" version of the AVCC XML Addendum. That version omits the data-contribution obligation and the irrevocable license.
The 2022 renewal package, dated December 22, 2022, contains the standard version of the AVCC XML Addendum, which includes the Section I.2 obligation to contribute data and the Section II.1 irrevocable, worldwide license. That copy is also unsigned, with the originating agency identifier left blank and the third-party data election uninitialed.
At the January 2026 council meeting, Police Chief Ceynowa told the council that the department does not upload its data to LexisNexis, has no interface to do so, and only draws data out.
What the public record shows is two unsigned documents and a statement on the record: an older form that excludes contribution, a newer form that requires it, and a chief who says, as of January 2026, that the department does not contribute. The signed terms in force are not in the public record.
