Police Commander Scott King described the program's structure and costs. For 2025 the ILA lists total program costs at $131,080; $88,669 of that amount is covered by grants through Linwood (as stated in the packet), and $42,330 is the city’s share, to be paid from opioid settlement funds. The county provides the 0.5 FTE social service worker, supervision and training, administrative support, equipment and a client database; the city contributes funding for the part‑time worker share and ancillary flexible assistance such as temporary shelter, move‑in supplies, ORCA cards and transportation assistance.

Commander King told the council the city already received a $7,500 flexible assistance grant from SCOUT for client needs and that the department can use previously accessed \"Blue Bridal\" funds as well. On medical costs, King said one‑time medical expenses would be paid with the department credit card and then reimbursed by SCOUT upon submission of receipts.

Councilmember Sanborn and others praised the program and asked about community outreach and longer‑term costs. King said SCOUT staff have attended local meetings, including the department's \"cops and clergy\" meeting, and can present to the council or other community forums on request. The 2026 costs will be determined in writing by both parties before Jan. 1, 2026; the city manager said opioid settlement revenue will continue to arrive in varying structures and may help support the program in future years.

Councilmember Wold moved to authorize the mayor to sign the SCOUT interlocal agreement; the motion was seconded and carried on an affirmative voice vote. The agreement allows either party to terminate with at least 30 days' written notice and requires the parties to agree on 2026 costs in writing before Jan. 1, 2026.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Mountlake Terrace City Council Work Session - July 10, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Council authorized the mayor to sign an interlocal agreement with Snohomish County to embed a half‑time social service worker with Mountlake Terrace Police through the SCOUT program; the city’s 2025 share is $42,330 to be paid from opioid settlement funds.","taxTitle","Mountlake Terrace, Snohomish County, Washington","taxId",70959,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6174316,"Mountlake Terrace debate grows over Flock camera system; council hears calls for oversight and transparency",2022,80905,2103885,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5370751-aa51eacc9471c4ba4b5f6fdc30ec493b&start=80&end=2103","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5370751-aa51eacc9471c4ba4b5f6fdc30ec493b/thumbnail_80905.jpg","/articles/6174316/Mountlake-Terrace/Snohomish-County/Washington/Mountlake-Terrace-debate-grows-over-Flock-camera-system-council-hears-calls-for-oversight-and-transparency","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6174316-9ec63d68c522c9d47f8e6d06838512f8/orig.mp4?Expires=1771136797&Signature=DGUSRDah5wARRqJNmBmC4vzAYtwU~~y~EDWceH7aJAopj6qNcUKWB~6FuLd0HUnGCqmehV3w7myR4WmyEQA~Ue8Lr1nRr-LOcz1GCY7yORY2YjVGSH7YMo2jN~5ffhgLoJIfQtPD1BmQVb~I1wsi-PYmbwG9-xOpMB45gLDv2jcJ6jDv5hoWU1eLytEeyjyd38GjcCsIA05I0u5sQEgKsLovSYHCH9FwqqALLvEkNqMc0VZF5jAxhbVcL50VT1cuZaRSpySl0Ogs08WzX~x-9-qIxhgFZ1u1ac53Gjvsi02sCQkhWAdkE321nAmE034gVUvxnM94u2z7-TChx2L4kA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Public commenters and several council members on Tuesday urged Mountlake Terrace officials to revisit the council’s recent approval of the Flock Safety camera system, citing privacy and data‑sharing concerns and asking for stronger local oversight.

Residents Audrey Meyer and Ode Puyfoulhou told the council they feared how footage and data might be shared with outside agencies and how that could affect immigrants and other vulnerable residents. \"Please don't give them a reason to use resources here,\" Meyer said, arguing the city should reconsider its vote on the system. Puyfoulhou likened modern surveillance tools to historical state surveillance, saying \"systems like Flock would have been [the Stasi's] dream come true.\"

The comments followed council discussion about the system's technical and policy implementation. Councilmember Page asked for what she called a \"crash course\" explaining what data the system will show police, how audits will work and what staff will monitor. Councilmembers also asked whether the city can track memoranda of understanding (MOUs) and how other cities might share access to footage. \"How are we going to keep track of the MOUs and make sure other cities are following them?\" Meyer asked during public comment.

Police and city staff said installation must go through the permitting process and that it will likely be several months before cameras are installed and operating. Councilmember Ryan asked if the public will see a map of camera locations; staff said there was no map in the packet but that they can share location information with council. Councilmembers requested notification when the system becomes active.

Several councilmembers recommended steps to respond to community concern: reestablish a community policing advisory board or use existing community ambassador programs as an oversight forum; review and possibly revise the police policy manual on camera use; and consider issuing a statement of city values to reassure residents. A council member recounted hearing an audio message informing a shopper they were \"on camera\" and noted that footage sometimes routes to neighboring cities' police departments, raising questions about intercity use and accountability.

The council did not take formal action on Flock at the meeting. Staff said they will provide additional information to the council, including a possible presentation by the camera vendor or police auditors and a map of proposed camera locations. Councilmembers indicated they want periodic updates and community outreach before the system becomes operational.","Public commenters and council members pressed Mountlake Terrace leaders to revisit the city’s recent Flock Safety camera decision, asking for clearer auditing, a map of camera locations and a community oversight mechanism.","actionData","errors"]
