The city of Oak Ridge. They can let a mall sit empty for nearly a decade with mostly taxpayer funded agencies as it's current tenants, they can ignore the ever increasing illegals, but they must have their cameras. They also I hear plan of a spymobile to park in various places and take pictures of various traffic offenses.

Majority of the city council and mayor aren't quite on the ball enough to generate the cities revenue by encouraging more businesses it seems and instead opted for cameras.

One good thing from this is the current city Police Chief has ruined his chance of ever being elected County Sheriff by supporting the cameras. Many residents in the county who shopped and work in Oak Ridge resent the cameras as well.

I am on a boycott of Oak Ridge myself until the cameras are taken down and I used to spend around $500 a month there shopping. A neighboring town in the county called Clinton is growing much faster than Oak Ridge is these days as far as business recruitment goes. I go to Clinton or Halls to shop now.
