    Thursday, November 12th, 2026, 5pm, at Haverhill City Hall, 4 Summer Street

    Haverhill’s FLOCK surveillance cameras automatically record license plates and other vehicle information, creating a searchable record of people’s movements. They threaten our privacy, and it’s unclear who outside Haverhill can access the data.
