Flock cameras

The realtor and small business owner asked the council to publish clear policies governing Flock cameras and drone use, release annual transparency reports, and conduct regular public review, arguing safety and liberty can both be protected.

A criminal justice and IT professional who installs police cameras said Flock's fixed cameras farm every passing plate with no public notice of the contract, and questioned data sharing with agencies nationwide.

A Little Elm resident and Texas House candidate argued the real issue is scale — computers never forget, and months of plate data paint a picture of ordinary life — and urged oversight over unexamined power.

Urged the city to cancel its Flock contract and remove the cameras, citing Fourth Amendment protections and emerging Bluetooth and Wi-Fi tracking risks.
