You guys put these cameras up so quickly and without anyone noticing until last year. It is a slap in the face to all of us as Americans,\u201d one resident said to the city council.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">Lebanon police operate nearly 50 flock cameras across the city. The department recently launched a camera program transparency page explaining what the cameras collect, how long images are retained and who can access the system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"text | article-text\">\u201cWe are going to continue to give law enforcement the best tools that we can across the board,\u201d said city councilmember Chris Crowell.<\/p>\n<p>Copyright 2026 WSMV.
