# Community Comment and Town Council Meeting of November 10, 2026

At the West Hartford Town Council meeting on November 10, 2026, public commenters urged the town to cancel its existing contract with Flock Safety for automated license plate readers, citing privacy, data security, oversight, and legal-liability concerns. Speakers also requested public approval and independent oversight of surveillance technology. These were comments on an item not on the agenda; the council took no action on the Flock contract. No new procurement awards, RFPs, or vendor selections were identified.

The council adopted a resolution adjusting the workforce parking program rate to $3.75 for up to 12 hours, replacing the previous $3 eight-hour and $4.50 12-hour rates. The resolution also provides that mobile payment processing fees will be collected from users and remitted to ParkMobile; the motion passed. The town manager reported that paving was underway as part of the West Hartford Center infrastructure project, with a final pavement course planned for spring, but no project cost or contract action was discussed. The council also voted to refer a short-term-rental ordinance for review and a future public hearing; it did not vote on the ordinance itself.
