I'd suggest a motion to include an independent third party cybersecurity audit of the company as part of the terms of agreement. If the audit determines that the company is not adequately protecting consumer data (if it's Flock, they aren't), then no deal. Flock has a very "trust me bro" stance on their security and data protection policies, so an actual audit needs to be done, rather than just talking to a PR rep.

I'd also ask them what guarantees/protections are being discussed regarding the unauthorized access or sale of collected data by third parties.

Is there a predetermined term length for the contract? Can it be broken at any time or will the city be obligated to allow them to operate for the full term?

What stipulations are noted for determining a breach of contract? What consequences are there if the contract is broken or if the company is found to be acting unethically?

Scary stuff man. The Lowes next to my workplace just had a flock camera installed that points directly at my parking spot. It takes all I have every day not to go buy a saw and cut it down.

Good luck!! 🦙🦙
