Flock license plate readers

Presented a 464-signature petition demanding the county halt warrantless mass surveillance funding, criticized the $300-per-camera data retention surcharge, and called the internal audit of 144,000 searches an honor system.

Cited roughly $4 million in tax dollars spent on Flock since 2022 and argued the cameras erode community trust; suggested the money go to community programs instead.

Delivered a satirical speech demanding surveillance cameras be pointed at commissioners' and the sheriff's own homes, arguing officials wouldn't accept for themselves what they're imposing on residents.

Asked the board to halt Flock expansion and order an independent third-party audit of the sheriff's program — costs, searches, data access and retention — before letting residents decide.
