South Lyon’s police department asked the council to approve the Road Commission for Oakland County’s agreement to install two license‑plate‑reader (LPR) cameras on county‑maintained roads within the city. The equipment was included in the police department’s FY25‑26 budget and the agreement lays out placement and use requirements.

Council member Bogart moved to deny the county agreement, saying she has concerns about privacy and insufficient safeguards. Bogart said "Flock cameras collect license plates from every vehicle that passes the camera" and also capture vehicle make, color and model; she warned of documented abuses and pending lawsuits in other municipalities and cited potential Fourth Amendment issues and freedom‑of‑information burdens.

The Police Chief responded that the cameras would serve as an investigative tool and aid missing‑person searches. "If someone's missing, we can find out where the last place their car was," the chief said, noting the department can query regional camera networks to trace a vehicle. The motion to deny was on the floor and discussion continued; the transcript excerpt does not record a final vote.
