On Monday afternoon, eight council members put forward three separate plans to revise Tuesday night's omnibus "public safety package" from Berkeley police.

The most far-reaching proposal, from Berkeley Mayor Adena Ishii and Councilwoman Cecilia Lunaparra, would cut Flock out of the city's program altogether.

 Meanwhile, police say Flock is their only viable option.

TBS has the scoop.
