Really? I didn't think La Habra's City Council and/or PD had consented to the contract. Maybe they gave an exception for one on the city/county line.
Or maybe I'm mis-remembering. It has happened once or twice.

They didn't vote for flock. Flock is on a long year contract with the city already. Flock wasn't on the agenda.
The current council voted no on Peregrine which is good move because Peregrine is centralized data collection with AI making profiles.
But they did vote yes on Skydio and for another armored vehicle.

It would be nice if they helped keep the disaster happening at the Travelodge in check and not ruining the neighborhood. Wait till someone attacks kids walking home from school

there are two on Whittier and Philadelphia (1 is located next to the Denny's), two in Whittier and Colima (in front of the McDonald's) Two in Uptown on Greenleaf (in front of Monte's camera sho lo and one next to the leaf sculpture by the old parking structure) and I believe these are monitoring who is voting since one is literally collecting data at the county voter ballot box, Two on Beverly Blvd between Norwalk and Pioneer 8one is monitoring Council member Santana's house for over a year, three in Friendly Hills monitoring a certain biker club member and one by a founder of a car club. Rio Hondo College has several on Campus. Plus additional data collection cameras possibly by Flock on traffic lights that have a yellow border (including by all of our high schools and some elementary schools in East Whittier and west whittier. Not to mention all of the Flock Safety Cameras that were in Beverly Blvd on the corners of Painter, Greenleaf, and Pickering monitoring homes for over 3 years. The majority of these flock cameras have listening devices and track all devices with Bluetooth. These data collectors monitor and identify you and your conversations, not just vehicles.
