Government briefs: Roundup of news from Edgewood, Boone County, Fort Wright

Edgewood Mayor John Link gave all the council members a chance to talk first about the Flock cameras in the city Monday night at the regular council meeting. They have been turned off and covered up until council members had a chance to find out more about the cameras and the company. Six of the 7 council members present talked about how they thought the Flock cameras were a good tool for the police, but almost all the council members felt the company was not honest with them, and trust issues were evident. They also felt that the other cameras in the city could probably do the same job of helping the police fight crime. Due to their reasoning, all six voted to take the funding for the cameras out of the budget.
