Council Meetings · FOIA Requests · Getting Involved
The most effective way to stop Flock is through organized community pressure on the Woodbury City Council. Here's what you need to do:
Check woodburymn.gov or call Woodbury City Hall for meeting dates and times. Meetings are usually monthly and open to the public.
Next step: Visit woodburymn.gov for exact meeting dates and how to register to speak.

Registration:
Most cities require advance registration to speak at council meetings. Call Woodbury City Hall or check the council agenda online to see how to register.
To hold city government accountable, we need transparency about Flock contracts, data sharing agreements, and any existing surveillance infrastructure.
Request: Copies of any contracts between Woodbury and Flock Safety, including terms, costs, and data sharing agreements.
Request: List of any ALPR cameras currently deployed in Woodbury, their locations, and which agencies have access to the data.
Request: Copies of any city policies on surveillance technology procurement, data retention, and public oversight.
