Santa Barbara’s City Council has paused the use of automated license-plate readers, rejecting renewals with Flock Safety and Verkada—halting police investigations until a revamped privacy policy is finalized. The move stems from growing concerns over data security, access controls, and conflicting promises in the current policy. While critics warn the tech poses serious civil liberty risks and delivers minimal benefits for stolen vehicle recovery, law enforcement and victims’ families argue it’s crucial for solving violent crimes. Police point to real successes—including solved robberies, assaults, and hit-and-runs—as evidence of its value, while clarifying state law restricts federal data sharing. Now, the council vows to overhaul the policy swiftly, though no firm deadline exists—leaving the future of ALPR tech in Santa Barbara hanging in the balance.
