FLOCK license plate camera funding removed from budget
The Council removed the $45,000 annual FLOCK camera appropriation from the budget after discussion of misuse by other agencies. Police leaders noted West Melbourne never misused the system, and the city's non-appropriation clause frees it from the contract — but FLOCK could return later with better rules.

Micromobility and E-Bike Regulation
New city rules now ban golf carts from city streets and sidewalks unless on approved paths, while registered, insured low-speed vehicles may use roads of 35 mph or less. Police will educate residents first, then warn, then cite.
