Currently in East Palo Alto there IS at least one camera monitored by Palo Alto within the EPA city limits.
EPA is not currently a client of Flock Security. At the time of the release of this story city officials can not tell us who monitors one of the cameras we found on Woodland and University, only that it is NOT monitored by East Palo Alto.
