Flock License Plate Reader Operational Videos
Flock License Plate Reader Operational Videos
The Flock representative was not able to attend National Night Out due to her two year old daughter coming down with COVID. She has prepared a link for us to several short videos depicting how the camera system works. We want Homeowners to have as much information as possible on the capabilities of the cameras because our Homeowners will make the decision on whether the cameras will be installed. Please take the time to research the capabilities of the Flock cameras before you make a decision. A few recent comments from Homeowners indicate some Homeowners may be confusing the Flock license plate reader cameras with red light cameras or they are trying to compare the Flock camera with a home security system. They are not comparable at all with the Flock license plate reader. If our Homeowners were to approve the Flock cameras one would be placed on all nine exits to the subdivision, including Ehrhardt, essentially setting up a defensive perimeter. The Flock cameras are a proactive security system that functions as both a deterrence (they make no attempt to hide the camera) and actively documents the make, model, color and license plate of the vehicles leaving the subdivision along with the time. If someone reports a suspicious red car at 2 am, that should be all the information HCSO needs to identify the car and get the plate number. All Flock cameras in Harris County are integrated together. HCSO can pole cameras near events like multiple stolen cars to see if they can identify a common vehicle that was near each theft. If approved the cameras will be operated by HCSO.
We will be available to answer any questions at the Members Meeting on October 15th. The below link takes you to a series of short videos discussing how the cameras work and the results that have been achieved where they are installed. In particular, please pay attention to the police officer comments from Jersey Village. There is also a video from an HOA near Katy that is of interest. Copy the link and past it into your browser.
