He provided a detailed description of how the system would work, the different types of police access, whom data is shared with (other police departments only), and the police department policy controlling the use of the Flock system. There will be nine cameras (locations noted on a map presented), which only captures the back license plate of the vehicle; no people, faces, interiors of vehicles, etc. are taken. The data will be useful to assist the officers with leads to help solve crimes, other agencies, school information, amber alerts, silver alerts and stolen vehicle information. It is used as a crime reduction tool and was originally created for neighborhoods. Offenders will be less likely to access Trophy Club if they are aware the cameras are used in Trophy Club. Sergeant Webb, from Ft. Worth Police Department, helped to describe many of the benefits his city has seen, including crime going down in the areas the cameras are placed. He explained his Department has no complaints with the system; the system does not alert to anything less than a Class B violation.
