Got any legalese wording for a question I can ask on that? Someone gave me this one for a separate but similar issue: "If the council puts up surveillance cameras, the footage becomes discoverable by anyone who has a court case or proceeding in which the footage may be relevant. There will also be Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests by citizens who have a right to see the footage simply because it exists. Other cities which have implemented surveillance have had issues dealing with the increased volume of requests. What does the council anticipate will be the increased costs of responding to discovery and FOIA requests, and how does the council propose to pay for it?"

Just think, every corner in town could be capturing the next Coldplay concert couple!
