Who approved this?
Approved by Saint Paul City Council.
The Saint Paul City Council passed RES 26-1421 on August 26, 2026, seven days after it was introduced on August 19, 2026. The resolution calls upon the City of Saint Paul and Ramsey County to end their contracts with Flock Safety, and the council record shows the file moved to the Mayor's Office after passage. FOX 9 reported the vote as unanimous and described the measure as a request rather than a ban. The resolution asks the administration to report back on progress within 60 days. FOX 9 reported that Mayor Kaohly Her and the police chief committed to removing the two Flock cameras the city owns. KSTP reported 12 Flock cameras inside the city, with 2 run by Saint Paul police and 10 by the Ramsey County Sheriff, so the count shown covers only the 2 city-owned cameras. No dollar amount, term length or contract end date appears in the resolution record or in the coverage read for this entry. This entry records a vote to end contracts, so no approval roll call is listed.
