DENVER — On the same day that Denver Mayor Mike Johnston announced a five-month extension of the city's contract with license plate camera maker Flock Group, Inc. , community members demanded their removal from intersections across Denver.

Flock cameras were installed in Denver in May 2024, and there are now more than 100 cameras mounted at 70 intersections across the city.

The Denver Police Department has credited the license plate readers for hundreds of arrests and recovered stolen vehicles, as well as the recovery of dozens of firearms. But at a packed community meeting Wednesday night, residents called for the city to "De-Flock Denver" and for the mayor to include the community in conversations about the future of the cameras.
