Key concerns raised included potential data privacy violations, constitutional rights, the potential for government overreach, and the lack of transparency. Additional public commentary touched upon the need for better enforcement of existing ordinances regarding public space maintenance and homelessness, alongside requests for more community engagement and a public vote on the surveillance contract.
