What happened
The Lynchburg City Council debated Flock surveillance cameras nearly two months after the city voted to end its contract. Councilwoman Timmer proposed a resolution requiring Flock to provide a written breakdown of potential refunds, removal fees, and data deletion timelines. The resolution failed by a 3-4 vote. The city plans to keep the cameras off until the contract expires at the end of April to avoid additional removal costs.
