While a number of Valley cities are ending their contracts with the Flock Group over misuse of the automatic license plate reader camera systems, Scottsdale leaders seem to have mixed feelings about it.
Scottsdale Police say Flock is a safe and effective law enforcement tool.
The Scottsdale Police Department audits its system four times per year with every search recorded and time-stamped, allowing the department to review who conducted a search, when it occurred and the documented law-enforcement purpose associated with it, according to a fact sheet about the department’s Flock system created by the Scottsdale Police Department.
