Chandler Council Delays Flock Safety Vote | Phoenix News

Chandler, Arizona, has delayed a vote on renewing its contract with Flock Safety—makers of license plate reader cameras—until August 13th, sparking fresh outrage after months of public outcry. Residents flooded council meetings in May demanding transparency over data collection, prompting the council to table the vote and promise an executive session. But now, with no sign of those sessions and no updates from council members, frustration is mounting. Councilmember OD Harris revealed reporters uncovered the executive session never happened, calling it a betrayal of transparency. While city officials say council will meet with experts before the August vote, the lack of communication has ignited renewed protests—and the public isn’t backing down.
