Flock Safety Cameras

This resident expressed concerns about the effectiveness and privacy of Flock Safety ALPR cameras, citing research that questions their crime-solving claims and reports of employee access to sensitive camera feeds.

A resident opposed Flock cameras, stating the technology has evolved beyond simple license plate readers, integrating with commercial data brokers and federal agencies. They called for a public accounting of camera usage, an audit of data access, and a vote to end the contract, also questioning the camera at Moose Park pointed at a playground.
