Civic action

Ask City Council for clear rules.

A respectful message from residents can make a difference. Keep it calm, factual, and focused on safeguards that protect public safety and ordinary residents.

Key asks

  1. 1 Hold a public hearing on Flock with public comment and an independent expert who does not work for the department or Flock. The September 8, 2026 study session had neither.
  2. 2 Require regular third-party independent audits of Flock use, with public reporting of the results.
  3. 3 Add stronger contract language limiting Flock from selling, sharing, or monetizing machine-learned or derived data from Casa Grande.
  4. 4 Require warrants or comparable documented legal standards for sensitive Flock searches, similar to cell phone records.
  5. 5 Disable sharing Casa Grande Flock data with outside agencies unless City Council publicly approves a narrow exception.
  6. 6 Create clear legal and employment consequences for Casa Grande staff misuse, including stalking, harassment, or personal searches.
  7. 7 Allow the people of Casa Grande to vote out Flock and all future mass surveillance systems.

Short call script

Use your own words.

Hello, my name is [name], and I live in or care about Casa Grande. I support public safety and law enforcement, but powerful surveillance systems need clear public rules before they become part of everyday life. The September 8 study session had no public comment and no outside expert, and the city's own search logs contradict what the council was told. Please hold a public hearing on Flock and adopt a binding ordinance. I am asking for regular third-party audits and public reporting, warrants or comparable legal standards for sensitive searches, a ban on people searches and federal immigration searches, stronger data and sharing limits, real consequences for misuse, and a public vote on Flock and future mass surveillance systems. Thank you.

Keep the tone constructive.

The goal is not to insult officials or police officers. The goal is to ask for transparency, clear rules, and public accountability before a powerful surveillance system becomes normal in Casa Grande.
