Palm Bay Pauses License Plate Cameras | Orlando News

Palm Bay has paused its controversial FLOCK license plate cameras after an internal review revealed potential violations of city installation rules — and the cameras are now hooded and offline until a full investigation clears them. The city manager emphasized transparency, promising residents they’ll see concrete action before any final decisions. While not being torn down yet, these cameras remain deactivated as officials dig into how they were permitted across the board — with findings headed to City Council. This isn’t the first tech misstep for Palm Bay, recalling past removals of school zone speed cameras due to legal issues. As law enforcement touts cameras for locating suspects, privacy advocates are sounding alarms — calling for stronger oversight to protect civil liberties in the age of surveillance tech.
