• Monthly audit of entries conducted by lieutenant at the station • Data is retained only for limited investigative periods • ALPR systems do not track individuals
• ALPR systems simply record vehicles observed in public places, where there is no expectation of privacy
• Cameras photograph license plates and vehicle characteristics only
• Similar to a deputy observing a license plate while on patrol in a public place
• Oversight and strict policies prevent misuse
• Technology focuses on solving crime, not monitoring residents

conclude flights
We work with:
• The District Attorney’s Office

courtroom-ready operations.
• Drone usage is limited to responding to calls for
service. The program is not used to patrol the city.
• When drones are in transit, cameras are directed
toward the direction of travel — not toward
unrelated residences or businesses. Flight data is
recorded and published for public review. Video
footage and photographs are used strictly for
evidence-collection purposes, similar to the
Sheriff’s Aviation Unit.
