Councils That Cancelled Flock
Snohomish County holds 3 of them, so they come first. Those are the councils you can testify in front of. The rest of the country follows, for when your own council says cancelling is not something cities do. Every entry links to its source and was last verified in July 2026.

What the County Record Shows
A pause is not a cancellation
Everett and Stanwood switched their cameras back on in spring 2026, the moment ESSB 6002 removed the records exposure that had kept them dark. Only Lynnwood and Edmonds terminated their contracts outright, and only those two have stayed off.
Documentation moves councils
Lynnwood's 7 to 0 termination followed records requests and months of resident pressure. Mukilteo cut off Flock's nationwide lookup in October 2025 after learning federal agencies had searched its data without authorization.
Before the install is the cheapest fight
Mountlake Terrace reversed a $54,000 nine camera contract six months after approving it, before a single pole went up. The City of Snohomish still has its cameras in the boxes, and Woodway has never signed.
A cancellation has to be done by the book
Edmonds had to cancel twice. The mayor and police chief first tried to end the contract by letter without council authorization, and the council cured it with a unanimous vote on June 9, 2026.
Your Council Is the Next One
Lynnwood, Edmonds, and Mountlake Terrace all voted after their own residents showed up. Find out where your city stands, then say so at the next meeting.
