Milford aldermen reject end to Flock cameras, vote to pause

Milford aldermen rejected a proposal to end the city’s Flock camera program and then voted to pause the cameras.

Two votes on the camera program

The first vote turned down an effort to end the use of Flock cameras in Milford. The aldermen then took a separate vote to pause the program.

The two actions leave the cameras paused rather than permanently eliminated. The votes distinguish between ending the program and temporarily stopping its operation.

What the decision means

The action does not end Milford’s Flock camera program. Instead, the aldermen’s vote places the cameras on pause after the board rejected a proposal for a permanent end.

The decision concerns the city’s use of Flock cameras. The action described by the New Haven Register does not establish a new end date or explain what further vote or step would be needed to resume the program.

Next steps to follow

The next public action involving the program will clarify whether Milford aldermen consider the pause temporary, whether they set conditions for any future use, and whether another vote is scheduled. Until then, the program remains paused under the action taken by the aldermen.
