14 unpermitted Flock cameras found in a Florida county

Key takeaways

  • Fourteen Flock cameras were found in one Florida county.
  • The cameras did not have permits.
  • No person or agency has claimed ownership.
  • The installer and next county action remain unresolved.

The finding

Fourteen Flock cameras were found in a Florida county without the required permits. No person or agency has claimed responsibility for the cameras.

What remains unresolved

The ownership and installation of the cameras remain unresolved. The cameras are associated with Flock, a company that makes license-plate-reading systems, but no owner has been identified.

The finding creates a basic public-records and permitting question: which person, business or government entity placed the cameras, and under what authority? Those details have not been established.

Next steps to watch

The county’s handling of the cameras will show whether officials remove them, seek permits or identify an owner. Any action may also clarify whether the cameras were connected to a public agency, private property or another organization.

KXII reported the discovery of the 14 unpermitted cameras and the absence of a claimant.

What to watch

  • Whether county officials identify an owner or installer.
  • Whether the cameras are removed, permitted or otherwise addressed.
  • Whether officials release records about the cameras’ placement or use.
