The Providence City Council is scheduled to vote Wednesday, Oct. 14, on a ban on Flock cameras used by the city’s Police Department. The department’s contract with Flock is set to expire at the end of October. If council members approve the ban, it would take effect immediately, according to the information provided about the proposal. Police Chief Oscar Perez said he was unaware the vote was scheduled. The timing puts the council’s decision ahead of the contract’s expiration and could determine whether the city continues its arrangement with Flock. The available details do not specify the proposed ban’s terms or the council’s rationale.
