I want to start a petition stopping the Delaware County Council from buying or using Flock cameras and data centers.

A few weeks ago we saw some people using the initiative and referendum process to try to guarantee minority representation on the Delco council. (See: https:// upperdarbynow.com/news/bid-for-referendum-on-
delaware-county-council-minority-representation-falls-short/)

We should use this same process for Flock cameras and data centers. I propose we amend the Home Rule Charter as follows:

Delaware County and its departments and agencies shall not:

1. Purchase, lease, operate, maintain, or contract for the operation of automated license-plate recognition camera systems; or

2. Purchase, lease, own, operate, maintain, develop, construct, or contract for the development or operation of data centers.

(edit: fix typo)

NIMBY People Keeping RTM School District Overcrowded

We're moving out. I was excited to live in Media and send my kids to RTM schools, but the obnoxious loud minority opposed to any sort of new school has turned me off. RTM is "one of the few remaining school districts in the region that only offers a half-day [Kindergarten] option." We're moving to a school district that does have full-day.
