Title: Study Session – Crime Mitigation Strategies through the Use of Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) Technology
From: City Manager
Lead Department: Police

Recommendation
This is a study session and no action is needed from City Council.

Executive Summary
Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) technology uses a combination of cameras and computer software to scan the license plates of passing vehicles. The use of ALPR technology provides several potential benefits, including crime deterrence , real-time alerts to police when stolen or wanted vehicles enter an area, and enhanced investigative capabilities when a crime has already occurred. The Police Department is exploring the installation of fixed ALPR cameras at strategic locations in the C ity and is seeking the Council’s feedback and discussion so as to inform staff’s review and potential recommendation for Council approval of implementation of this technology. If the Department moves forward with deployment, it would complete a procurement process and return to Council with a proposed contract, deployment plan, and policy. This report outlines the uses and benefits of fixed ALPR technology, as well as associated privacy considerations and applicable law.

Background
Automated License Pl ate Reader (ALPR) technology uses a combination of cameras and computer software to scan the license plates of passing vehicles. The cameras, which can be fixed (e.g., mounted on road signs or traffic lights), or mobile (i.e., mounted on a vehicle), capture computer -readable images that allow law enforcement to compare plate numbers against plates of known stolen vehicles or vehicles associated with individuals wanted on criminal charges. When a match is found, a real -time alert is generated, notifying pol ice of the location where the image of the stolen or wanted vehicle was captured. ALPR data can also be used by investigators after a crime has been committed to identify and locate associated vehicles.

The Palo Alto Police Department has utilized a si ngle mobile ALPR unit for over ten years, and has recovered stolen vehicles and located wanted criminals as a result. The limitation of a single 3 Packet Pg. 4

City of Palo Alto Page 2

mobile ALPR is that alerts and data collection only occur when that vehicle is being operated by an officer, which is limited by staffing, calls for service, and other duties. Data is also limited to the route and distance traveled by the single patrol vehicle.

The use of ALPR technology is specifically regulated by California Civil Code §1798.90.5, et seq. and is also subject to the City’s Surveillance Technology ordinance, PAMC §2.30.620, et seq.

Discussion
The addition of fixed ALPR cameras provides the City with a cost -effective force multiplier that helps direct officers to where crimes are occurring and p rovides invaluable investigative leads following a crime. Strategically placed fixed ALPR cameras provide greater geographic and temporal coverage without the necessity of an officer or patrol vehicle. The use of fixed ALPR technology has become widespre ad in the region and is being used by many local police agencies to successfully locate stolen vehicles and solve other crimes where a vehicle has been used. In recent years, ALPR technology has continued to evolve in terms of quality and accuracy, while also becoming less cost-prohibitive.

Uses of ALPR
Recent years have seen regional increases in catalytic converter thefts, auto burglaries, vehicle thefts and organized retail thefts. And, although still rare, the community has experienced several brazen armed robberies. Those responsible for such crimes commonly use a vehicle to travel to and flee from the crime scene. Moreover, such offenders often engage in a series of criminal offenses involving multiple jurisdictions and victims, and commonly arrive in a stolen vehicle, a vehicle bearing stolen plates, or a vehicle that law enforcement has previously connected to verified criminal activity . Identifying stolen or wanted vehicles, via fixed ALPR, as they enter a target area provides law enforcement an opportunity to intervene before additional crimes are committed, and potentially apprehend wanted persons or recover stolen property. ALPR data also provides investigators with an additional technique to identify, locate and apprehend offenders once a crime has already occurred.

Logistics: A fixed ALPR system captures the date, time, location, license plate (state, partial, paper, and no plate), and vehicle characteristics (make, model, type, and color) of passing vehicles. The cameras function well und er daylight and low light conditions and are capable of capturing images of vehicles traveling at freeway speeds. ALPR cameras are positioned to capture rear license plates only and are not designed to capture images of vehicle occupants or utilize facial recognition technology. To derive maximum benefit with the fewest cameras needed, cameras are typically placed at strategically selected locations based on several factors: crime statistics, common vehicular ingress and egress points, and traffic volume.

Accounting for these factors provides the greatest likelihood of capturing images of suspects’ vehicles and their license plates.

3 Packet Pg. 5

City of Palo Alto Page 3

ALPR data is transmitted in an encrypted format, and stored remotely by a third -party vendor, consistent with Criminal Just ice Information System (CJIS) protocols. Departments utilizing an ALPR system access the data via a web-based platform.

Neighboring Agency Usage: Other local communities are currently using fixed ALPR technology, including Menlo Park, Atherton, Los Alt os Hills, Saratoga, Campbell, San Jose, Los Gatos, Gilroy, Morgan Hill, Milpitas, and Santa Clara, with several other local jurisdictions in the process of implementing the technology. These jurisdictions anecdotally report that, since the deployment of f ixed ALPR, they have experienced a marked increase in the recovery of stolen vehicles, as well as investigative success stories attributable to ALPR data.

Benefits of Usage: The use of ALPR technology provides several potential benefits, including crime deterrence, real-time alerts to police when stolen or wanted vehicles enter an area, and enhanced investigative capabilities when a crime has already occurred.

• Real-Time Alerts: When a real -time ALPR alert occurs, notifying police of the presence of a wanted or stolen vehicle, officers can respond to the area to search for the vehicle. If officers locate the vehicle, prior to making an enforcement stop, they visually confirm the plate number and manually check it against law enforcement databases to con firm the accuracy of the ALPR information and the legal justification for the stop.

• Deterrence: Even if officers are unable to locate and stop the vehicle in question, suspects may see the police response and be deterred from further criminal activity. Indeed the mere presence of the ALPR cameras, visibly mounted on public infrastructure and potentially accompanied by signage, may act as a deterrent. Police personnel have reported to staff that some criminals will intentionally target jurisdictions without ALPR technology to increase their chances of successfully avoiding detection while committing crimes.

• Solve Crimes Already Committed: In addition to providing opportunities to prevent crime and apprehend wanted persons via real -time alerts, ALPR data c an be used by investigators to solve crimes that have already occurred. Commonly, by the time a crime is reported to police, the suspects have already fled the area, and it is the job of police to identify and locate the suspects at a later time. While v ictims and witnesses can often provide responding officers with a description of the vehicle used by a suspect, those descriptions are frequently incomplete (e.g., a partial license plate number, vehicle type and color only) or consist of a license plate n umber that corresponds to a stolen vehicle or a stolen plate.

Investigators can turn that imperfect or incomplete information into actionable leads by querying the ALPR database.

For example, investigators can search the database for vehicles matching e ven an incomplete description, which entered or exited the area of the crime, and use any responsive images as the basis for further investigation. Or, in the case of suspects using a stolen vehicle or a vehicle bearing stolen plates, investigators can se arch the database for 3 Packet Pg. 6

City of Palo Alto Page 4

other locations that vehicle has been observed and use that as a way to locate it or connect it to other offenses.

• Regional Coordination: ALPR data sharing among local law enforcement partners allows agencies to collaboratively inv estigate, identify and apprehend multi -jurisdictional offenders, or those who commit crimes in one jurisdiction but reside in another. For example, if a vehicle wanted in connection with a Palo Alto crime is frequently captured, via ALPR, at a particular location in another city, that may provide Palo Alto investigators the lead they need to locate the vehicle and apprehend the suspect. Or, in the case of organized retail thieves, ALPR data sharing may allow investigators to connect multiple cases across disparate jurisdictions, share evidence, and obtain the best prosecutorial outcomes.

• Expanded Searchable Data Set: Private entities (e.g., Home Owners Associations, shopping centers, individual retailers) utilizing ALPR cameras can also elect to share th eir data with local law enforcement, to include real -time alerts when wanted or stolen vehicles are captured. The Department is informed that multiple such entities exist in Palo Alto, including the City’s largest shopping center. This is a one -way share. A private entity that shares its ALPR data with law enforcement does not gain access to law enforcement data in return. The investigative usefulness of an ALPR system is greatly enhanced as its searchable data set increases, whether from other law enforcement contributors or private entities.

One of the four priorities of the City Council this calendar year is Community Health and Safety with an emphasis on c rime (among others). Further, the 2030 Comprehensive Plan includes policies S-1.6 and S-1.7, which supports a balanced approach of utilizing safety technology with policy driven safeguards. The Department believes that the deployment of a fixed ALPR system, with sound polices and training, would support crime prevention, criminal apprehension, stolen vehicle recovery, and criminal investigation, by providing police with real - time alerts when wanted or stolen vehicles enter targeted areas and by capturing footage of fleeing suspect vehicles.

Privacy Considerations
Organizations such as the Ame rican Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), have expressed concerns about the use of ALPR. Among its concerns are data access, storage, retention, sharing, and reporting. If fixed ALPR were to be deployed in Palo Alto, the Department would implement policies responsive, in whole or in part, to each of these concerns. For example, many local law enforcement agencies retain ALPR data for 1 year, or even longer; the Department believes that a retention period as short as 30 days would adequately support investigati ve needs. Only data which has been identified as relevant to a specific criminal investigation would be retained longer than that 30 day period.

3 Packet Pg. 7

City of Palo Alto Page 5

Internally, data would only be accessible to properly trained staff with a legitimate law enforcement need, and all queries would be logged and subject to audit. When implementing this technology, an organization has choices on its policies regarding sharing of data. S ome local law enforcement agencies share data with federal and out of state law enforcement agencies. The Department would recommend restrictions on sharing of data collected by the City to only share data with other local law enforcement agencies who adhere to similar policies, and those queries would likewise be logged. Neither the Department, nor the third - party vendor, would share the Department’s data with any non law enforcement entities. The Department would make readily -accessible to the public its relevant policies as well as information concerning the number of cameras deployed, the dat a retention period, and the names of law enforcement agencies with whom it shares data.

Legal and Policy Considerations
California Civil Code § 1798.90.5, et seq . governs the collection and use of license plate information by government agencies. It sp ells out the policies that an agency must implement when collecting ALPR data. These policies, largely, address the same concerns set forth above under Privacy Considerations. If fixed ALPR were to be deployed in Palo Alto, the Department would ensure that its policies and training satisfied the requirements of this statute.

Palo Alto’s Surveillance Technology ordinance (No. 5420) modified PAMC § 2.30.620, et seq. to establish criteria and procedures to protect personal privacy in the acquisition and use of surveillance technology, and provide for ongoing monitoring and reporting. Fixed ALPR is “surveillance technology” as defined by the ordinance. The ordinance requires Council approval of the acquisition of new surveillance technology and of a Surveil lance Use Policy specific to each new approved technology. In approving new surveillance technology, the Council must determine that its benefits outweigh the associated costs and concerns. The ordinance sets forth specific elements that must be present in a Surveillance Use Policy, including limitations on access, use, and retention, as well as a description of compliance procedures. Prior to the acquisition of fixed ALPR for deployment in Palo Alto, the Department would return for Council approval and ensure that its Surveillance Use policy and training satisfy the requirements of the ordinance.

Resource Impact
Should the City move forward with the acquisition of fixed ALPR technology, the Department would complete a procurement process in which costs and other factors are examined, and return to the Council with a recommended vendor and proposed agreement.

A fixed ALPR system could be deployed either by leasing the equipment, with installation, maintenance and replacement being the responsibility of the vendor, or via purchase of the equipment, with installation, maintenance and replacement being the responsibility of the City.

In either case, there would be an additional annual subscription cost, associated with accessing the ALPR database.

3 Packet Pg. 8

City of Palo Alto Page 6

Preliminary research, based on open source vendor information and publicly -available information regarding the cost of ALPR programs in other local cities, suggests that a deployment of fixed ALPR cameras in Palo Alto would come at a cost, in year one, of $75, 000- $200,000, and an on -going annual cost thereafter of approximately $50,000 -$150,000. If the City elected to purchase the cameras, it would expect to replace the equipment approximately every 5 years, given the useful life of equipment exposed to the el ements and advances in technology.

Stakeholder Engagement
The Department has reviewed a variety of relevant materials prepared by the ACLU, including its recommendations specific to the use of ALPR technology by law enforcement. In addition, the Depart ment proactively contacted local and regional ACLU representatives to request a meeting to discuss the group’s concerns with ALPR technology. To date, the ACLU has not been able to accommodate the Department’s request but the Department is hopeful this will occur in the near future.

The Department has consulted with several local law enforcement agencies to gather best practices for the acquisition, deployment, and oversight of a fixed ALPR program.

urveillance is on the rise in our communities, but basic transparency, oversight, and accountability remain the exception, not the rule. Police are spending billions of dollars on very sophisticated and invasive surveillance technology from license plate readers and cell phone trackers to facial recognition and drones. Too many of these programs are moving forward without public conversation, careful consideration of the costs and benefits, or adequate policies in place to prevent misuse and protect rights. As a result, surveillance may enable high-tech profiling, perpetuate systems of abusive policing, and undermine trust in law enforcement, particularly in communities of color where police misconduct has been rampant and community relationships have been strained. It’s time for change.

Communities must be equal partners in any decision about the use of surveillance technology. They need to know when and why surveillance is being considered, what it is intended to do, and what it will really cost — both in dollars and in individual rights. They need to be certain that any proposal includes strong mechanisms for transparency, accountability, and oversight. Otherwise, public trust can be easily damaged, and communities can end up saddled with systems that are too invasive, very expensive, and much less effective at accomplishing community safety goals than initially imagined.

This guide provides a step-by-step framework to approach surveillance proposals, properly evaluate their true costs, and develop policies that provide transparency, oversight, and accountability. Its checklist walks community members, policymakers, and law enforcement officials through essential questions to ask and answer about surveillance proposals, and includes dozens of case studies highlighting smart approaches and missteps to avoid. The guide concludes with model language for policymakers to adopt to make sure the right process is used every time a surveillance proposal is considered.

We hope you will find this document and its supporting materials (available online at aclunc.org/smartaboutsurveillance) useful in ensuring your community is making informed decisions about surveillance.

4 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES Why It Matters: The Costs and Consequences of Surveillance Surveillance technology is often proposed as an efficient public safety tool. But too often, proposals ignore not only the true financial costs of surveillance technology but also their potential to infringe on civil rights and undermine public trust and effective policing. Communities should identify and assess all of the harms and costs of surveillance as early in the consideration process as possible in order to determine whether moving forward with a surveillance technology is really the right choice.

A. SURVEILLANCE IMPACTS CIVIL RIGHTS AND COMMUNITY TRUST The community at large can pay a heavy price if
surveillance technology is acquired and deployed
without evaluating its impact on civil rights and its
potential for misuse. Surveillance can easily intrude
upon the individual rights of residents and visitors,
perpetuate discriminatory policing, or chill freedom of expression, association, and religion — freedoms that
public officials are sworn to protect.1 As a result,
surveillance can erode trust in law enforcement, making it harder for officers and community members to work
together to keep the community safe.2

1. SURVEILLANCE CAN INTRUDE UPON COMMUNITY
MEMBERS’ RIGHTS
The greatest cost of surveillance technology may not be financial but personal: the invasion and infringement of civil rights. Various types of surveillance technology are capable of capturing and storing vast amounts of information about community members and visitors: the political rallies and religious services they attend, the health services they use, the romantic partners they have, and more. Just the perceived threat of surveillance has the potential to harm community members by discouraging individuals from participating in political advocacy, opposing police misconduct, evaluating reproductive choices, exploring their sexuality, and engaging in other activities that are clearly protected by the federal and California constitutions. And, too often, this perception is grounded in reality, as demonstrated by Fresno’s use of social media monitoring software that flagged “#blacklivesmatter” as an indicator of criminal activity.34 There are many examples of the misuse of surveillance to target individuals based on their race, ethnicity, associations, or religious or political activities. Police in Santa Clara used a GPS device to track a student due to his father’s association with the local Muslim Community Association.5 Police in Michigan sought “information on all the cell phones that were congregating in an area where a labor-union protest was expected.”
6 The NSA specifically monitored the email of several prominent Muslim-Americans with no evidence whatsoever of wrongdoing.7 In Britain, where video surveillance is pervasive, a European Parliament “[S]urveillance  programs  follow  a  long
history of law enforcement targeting African
American  and  other  minority  groups….  We
need … a future in the city where our police
department  and  other  public  institutions
have  true  community  oversight  and
accountability.”
The  Rev.  B.T.  Lewis  and  Taymah  Jahsi,
Organizers, Faith in Community in Fresno2
Civil Rights Principles in an Era of Big Data, signed by fourteen of the nation’s leading civil and human rights groups, sounds the alarm on how surveillance technology often disproportionately affects communities of color and religious and ethnic minorities. It calls for technology to be “designed and used in ways that respect the values of equal opportunity and equal justice” and urges users to “stop high‐tech profiling” and “preserve constitutional principles.” The document further calls for search warrants and other independent oversight of law enforcement and “clear limitations and robust audit mechanisms to make sure that if these tools are used it is in a responsible and equitable way.”4

study showed that “the young, the male and the black were systematically and disproportionately targeted not because of their involvement in crime or disorder, but for ‘no obvious reason.’”8 Surveillance programs that do not focus on individual targets can be particularly problematic. Tracking entire groups or communities extends “guilt by association” to those who have done nothing wrong, discourages participation in local activities, and alienates community members. And once members of the group are tainted with such suspicion, it becomes easy to justify prying into their private lives, or even threatening them with further consequences if they do not cooperate with additional surveillance efforts. 9 101112

SURVEILLANCE OF POLITICAL AND SOCIAL ACTIVISTS
The government has a long and troubled history of abusing surveillance powers to target political and social activists. From the  “Red Squads” of the early 20th cent ury to the FBI’s efforts to infiltrate and discredit antiwar and civil rights activists in the 1960s, to recent surveillance of the Black Lives Matter movement:
 The  Department  of  Homeland  Security  monitored  the  social  media a c c o u n t s  o f  B l a c k  L i v e s Matter members and collected details about the locations of members and plans for peaceful protests in Ferguson, Baltimore, and New York City. This led many to question why the DHS — formed to combat terrorism — was surveilling members of a peace ful domestic social justice movement.10
 Police  in  Fresno,  California,  secretly  acquired  and  tested  multiple  social  media  surveillance tools  that  encouraged  surveillance  of  hashtags  like  #BlackLives Matter,  #dontshoot,  and #wewantjustice and assigned individuals a “threat level.” This led to nationwide negative press attention and calls for reform from community members, all of w hich forced the police chief to issue a public apology.11
 Authorities in the Oregon Department of Justice came under fire  when it was revealed that a senior  investigator  had  used  software  to  conduct  surveillance  o f  hashtags  including #BlackLivesMatter, which returned results for civil rights advocates, including the president of the  Urban  League  of  Portland.  The  story  triggered  a  public  apology  by  Oregon’s  Attorney General and led to an internal investigation.12
Intelligence reforms born from lawsuits and congressional inqui ries have led many law enforcement agencies  to  bar  the  collection  of  information  about  political  activism  and  other  First  Amendment‐ protected activities without a j ustifiable suspicion of crimina l activity. But surveillance of Black Lives Matter  demonstrates  a  need  for  similar  restrictions  on  the  use of  surveillance  technology  today  to ensure that it is not used to chill or undermine political and social activism.

6 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES “Dragnet” surveillance often targets communities of color:
for example, in Oakland, the police have
disproportionately used license plate readers in African- American and Latino neighborhoods.13 In Compton,
police flew a plane rigged with high-powered surveillance cameras overhead for weeks without the public’s
knowledge or consent.14 Because it involves collecting vast amounts of information, dragnet surveillance also creates the potential for all sorts of abuse, from NSA analysts tracking romantic partners15 to a Washington, D.C. police lieutenant blackmailing patrons of a gay bar.1617 18
Surveillance carries privacy and free speech threats even if it is conducted solely in public places. This is particularly true when surveillance information is aggregated to build a robust data profile that can “reveal much more in combination than any isolated record.”19
As Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor has noted,
“a precise, comprehensive record of a person’s public
movements … reflects a wealth of detail about her
familial, political, professional, religious, and sexual associations.” In addition, “[a]wareness that the
Government may be watching chills associational and
expressive freedoms.”
20 2. SURVEILLANCE CAN ERODE TRUST IN LAW ENFORCEMENT
When law enforcement fails to fully engage with community members about the impact of surveillance — or, worse, entirely skirts the democratic process by acquiring and deploying surveillance technology without public discussion at all — it erodes trust even further, making it even harder for law enforcement officers to work with the community to solve crimes and protect public safety.

In the years after the September 11th attacks, the New York Police Department created a secretive intelligence wing that infiltrated Muslim neighborhoods with undercover officers, where they monitored the daily lives of and compiled dossiers about Muslim-Americans engaging in constitutionally protected activities in cafes, bookstores, and private residences with no
evidence of illegal activity.21 22These activities gravely harmed the community’s trust in law enforcement and led to a multi-year lawsuit and settlement that barred the
NYPD from conducting investigations on the basis of race, religion, or ethnicity, and mandated implementation of a series of reforms designed to deter warrantless surveillance.

In Compton, news broke about an aerial surveillance
program that watched the whole community and was
intentionally kept “hush-hush” by the Sheriff’s Department to deter civil rights complaints. Both citizens and lawmakers were up in arms that they had been kept in the dark about such intrusive surveillance. Angry community members rightly questioned, "Why are we the target? As citizens we deserve [to know]. We are not all criminals.... It's an invasion of privacy.” The Mayor called for a “citizen private protection policy,” ensuring that the community would be notified before any new surveillance equipment was deployed or used.23
“One  of  the  most  alarming  parts  of  that
history has been the ways that surveillance
h a s  b e e n  m i s u s e d  a g a i n s t  B l a c k  p e o p l e who  have  been  advocating  for  their

and incarcerate.”

B. SURVEILLANCE CARRIES BOTH IMMEDIATE AND ONGOING FINANCIAL COSTS In addition to the costs to civil rights and civil liberties, the fiscal impact of surveillance can be extensive.

Modifying current infrastructure, operating and maintaining systems, and training staff can consume limited time and money, even if federal or state grants fund initial costs. Surveillance technologies may also fail or be misused, resulting in costly lawsuits. To calculate the full financial cost of surveillance technology, communities must look beyond the initial sticker price. 24 1. SURVEILLANCE REQUIRES INFRASTRUCTURE, STAFFING, TRAINING, AND MAINTENANCE The hidden costs of infrastructure, training and staffing, operations and maintenance, and the potential for budget overruns, can dwarf the cost of acquiring surveillance technology in the first place. Communities that have failed to accurately estimate the full financial cost of a surveillance system have dealt with massive cost overruns and programs that failed to accomplish their stated purpose. For example, Philadelphia planned to spend $651,672 for a video surveillance program featuring 216 cameras. Instead, it spent $13.9 million on the project and wound up with only 102 functional cameras after a year, a result the city controller described as “exceedingly alarming, and outright excessive — especially when $13.9 million is equivalent to the cost of putting 200 new police recruits on our streets.”25 To avoid a similar incident in your community, it is essential to identify all of the costs required to install, use, and maintain surveillance technology before making a decision about whether to do so.

2. SURVEILLANCE CAN CREATE FINANCIAL RISKS INCLUDING LITIGATION AND DATA BREACH Surveillance programs that fail to include proper safeguards to prevent errors or misuse and protect freedom of expression, association, and religion, or that inadequately enforce such safeguards, can lead to expensive litigation that diverts resources from other public services. For example, Muslim residents in Orange County filed a discrimination lawsuit when it was revealed that state agents were sending informants into mosques to collect information on the identities and activities of worshippers.26 The NYPD paid $2 million in attorney fees for spying on New York’s Muslim communities.27 Even technical glitches can create the potential for costly lawsuits and other expenses: the City of San Francisco was embroiled in a multi- year civil rights lawsuit after wrongly pulling over, handcuffing, and holding at gunpoint an innocent woman due to an error by its ALPR system.
28 29
The collection of surveillance data also creates the risk of data breaches that can incur significant public costs as well as endanger residents’ privacy and economic security.

Even following best practices (which itself can entail significant expense) is not enough to prevent every breach. California law requires that a local agency notify residents about a security breach.30 And the fiscal costs of a breach of sensitive surveillance data could be very high: a 2015 report found that companies spent an average of $3.7 million to resolve a data security breach.31 The more information your community collects and retains, the greater the risk and potential cost of a breach. “When  you’re  considering  a  new
technology, it’s important to evaluate
not only the upfront costs but also the
c o s t s  o f  m a i n t e n a n c e  a n d  u p g r a d e s that will occur down the road.”

3. LACK OF PROPER PROCESS CAN WASTE TIME AND MONEY
Failing to thoroughly discuss surveillance proposals and listen to community concerns early in the process can result in massive backlash and wasted time and funds when plans are suspended or ultimately cancelled. Oakland was forced to scrap most of the planning for its ill-fated Domain Awareness Center and scale the project back considerably after community members protested the misleading mission statement and lack of transparency for the project.
32 In Santa Clara County, a
secretive process to purchase a Stingray cell surveillance device was derailed by the County Executive after it sidestepped necessary community debate and county oversight.33 34
Community members grounded San Jose’s secret drone
purchase and the police were forced to apologize for the lack of transparency and community input.35 Engaging with the community before taking steps to go forward with a surveillance proposal is essential to avoiding similar mistakes that spark widepsread community outrage and waste time and resources.

C. SURVEILLANCE MUST TAKE EVOLVING PRIVACY LAW INTO ACCOUNT The use of surveillance technology is facing increased scrutiny and limits. Courts and lawmakers at the state and federal level, driven by increased public concern about privacy, are acting to protect individual rights and civil liberties. As a result, your community needs to consider both the existing laws and the potential for legal change, including the policy and individual rights concerns that are driving that change, when evaluating a surveillance proposal. 36
In recent years, federal courts have repeatedly reinforced legal protections for individual rights in the context of today’s technology. In 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously told law enforcement to “get a warrant” to search an arrestee’s cell phone. In another unanimous decision, the Court also ruled a warrant is required to use a GPS beeper to track a suspect’s vehicle, with a majority of the Court suggesting that using technology to track an individual’s location — even in public — over an extended period of time triggers constitutional scrutiny.37 Finally, multiple federal courts declared the NSA’s
warrantless collection of telephone metadata unlawful, with one criticizing its “almost Orwellian” scope.38 Surveillance programs that fail to account for this trend may well be held unconstitutional, and criminal investigations based on evidence from those programs could be jeopardized.

The California Constitution is even more protective of community members’ privacy, including in public spaces. The state right to privacy expressly gives Californians a legal and enforceable “right to be left alone” that protects interests in privacy beyond the home.39 The California Supreme Court has held that covertly “infiltrating” and monitoring the activities of students and professors at classes and public meetings without any indication of criminal activity violated the California Constitution,40 as did warrantless aerial surveillance of a resident’s backyard.41 Californians’ right to free expression also extends outside of the home, even to privately owned areas like shopping centers.42
Numerous laws and regulations also place limits or requirements on the use of surveillance technology. The federal Wiretap Act and its California counterpart limit the use of surveillance technology capable of “The fact that technology now allows an
individual  to  carry  such  information  in
his hand does not make the information
any  less  worthy  of  the  protection  for
which the Founders fought.”

intercepting the contents of live communications. And in 2015, California lawmakers enacted three separate laws that specifically address issues related to surveillance technology:
 Collection of Electronic Information: The California Electronic Communications Privacy Act requires a search warrant when collecting electronic information with surveillance technology like cell phone tracking technology. It also requires a warrant for searching electronic devices or compelling email, location information, or other metadata from service providers. The law creates additional procedural safeguards, including notice to the suspect, and allows for suppression or court-mandated deletion of information obtained or retained in violation of the law. 43  Automated License Plate Readers: Newly enacted California law requires an opportunity for public comment, a written, publicly available use policy that is “consistent with respect for an individual’s privacy and civil liberties,” and reasonable security safeguards for any use of automated license plate readers. Individuals can sue for harms due to a security breach or other unauthorized disclosures.
44  Cell Phone Tracking Technology: Newly enacted California law requires public process, local legislative approval for all agencies other than sheriffs, a public use and privacy policy that is “consistent with respect for an individual’s privacy and civil liberties,” and the disclosure of agreements with other agencies concerning the use of IMSI catchers and other cell phone tracking technology. The law also allows an individual to sue an agency for violating these provisions. 45 There have also been bipartisan legal changes at both the federal and state level to rein in surveillance. In 2016, federal lawmakers adopted reforms related to NSA spying.46 Eighteen other states have enacted laws restricting law enforcement access to location information,47 and a majority of states have introduced legislation aimed at curbing the use of drones for surveillance purposes.4849 These state and federal changes are driven by a clear shift in public attitudes towards surveillance. Community members want and expect reform at both the state and local level to increase transparency, accountability, and oversight for surveillance technology. Two thirds of California voters want to see local elected officials like City Councilmembers or County Supervisors approve new surveillance technologies before they can be used. Similarly, a strong majority of voters want to see both local (65 percent) and state (64 percent) policies SURVEY OF LIKELY 2016 CALIFORNIA VOTERS FINDS STRONG SUPPORT FOR REFORMS TO SURVEILLANCE TECHNOLOGY USE BY LAW ENFORCEMENT
Likely 2016 voters polled in a Califor nia statewide survey strongly favor local and state level reforms of law enforcement surveillance technology practices.49 A summary of key findings from the survey:

Voters also want to see steps taken to require public reporting from law enforcement agencies regarding the frequency of use of surveillance technologies (62 percent) as well as public notification before the purchase of any new surveillance technologies (58 percent).50 51
All of these factors have led many communities to move
forward with local ordinances that ensure transparency, accountability, and oversight for all surveillance
technologies.52 Your community should follow their lead and thoroughly evaluate any surveillance proposal in
order to protect the rights of your community members,
identify hidden costs and financial risks, and ensure that you comply with existing laws and are consistent with
increasing public concerns about privacy.

Necessary Steps when Considering a Surveillance Proposal Surveillance can be misused in ways that harm community members, undermine public safety goals, and saddle taxpayers with unnecessary costs. That’s why it is essential to publicly and thoroughly evaluate surveillance proposals. The following section will help your community — including diverse residents, public officials, and law enforcement — work together to de termine whether surveillance really makes sense and put in place robust rules to ensure proper use, oversight, and accountability if your community decides to move forward with a surveillance proposal. 53
A. COLLECTIVELY EVALUATE THE EFFECTIVENESS, COSTS AND ALTERNATIVES BEFORE MAKING DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE
Surveillance should only be a means to an end, never an end in itself. That means that your community should have an actual purpose in mind or problem that needs to be addressed before even considering surveillance technology. Once you have that, you can collectively evaluate whether surveillance is likely to effectively accomplish your goals, as well as estimate the costs to both your community’s budget and to individual rights.

1. DECIDE AS A COMMUNITY: INVOLVE THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY
FROM THE START
The best way to consider whether surveillance is the right choice and to avoid costly mistakes is to engage the entire community — including law enforcement, local lawmakers, and members of the public — in a thorough discussion about any surveillance proposal.

Different segments of your community are likely to bring valuable perspectives to the process of evaluating whether to acquire and use surveillance technology. And the time to engage with your community is at the very beginning of the process, before any funding is sought, technology is acquired, or system is used.54 Several cities considering proposals to introduce or
expand surveillance have found it useful to actively
engage community members through working
groups and ad-hoc committees to shape policy and
provide oversight. The Redlands Police
Department convened a Citizens’ Privacy Council,
open to any city resident of the city, to provide
advice on surveillance-camera policies and oversee
police use of the cameras.
55 Richmond formed an56
ad-hoc committee to evaluate policies for its video
“The public debate that the surveillance ordinance

be beneficial for everyone, including city officials,
to  help  them  learn  more  about  how  these
programs work and what they mean to the public.”

Awareness Center, the City Council created a Privacy and Data Retention Ad Hoc Advisory Committee comprised of diverse community members to create safeguards to protect privacy58 rights and prevent the misuse of data for a scaled-back system to be used at the Port of Oakland.59 Oakland now has a formal Privacy Commission, which will provide advice to the City of Oakland on best practices to protect privacy rights in connection with the City's purchase and use of surveillance equipment and other technology that collects or stores data.60
 Is the community engaged in an informed debate about any surveillance proposal? It is never too early for a public debate about a surveillance proposal. Community members should know what kind of surveillance is being considered, what it is intended to do and how it will affect them at the earliest stages of the process, when their input can bring out important information, highlight community concerns, and help avoid unforeseen problems and community backlash. 61 The public should be given effective notice that surveillance is being considered. Effective notice means more than a line item in a public meeting agenda. Law enforcement should proactively contact community groups, including those representing ethnic and religious communities, and local media to increase public awareness early in the process and engage the entire community with the issue. 62

CASE STUDY: SANTA CLARA COUNTY CANCELS STINGRAY BUY DUE TO TRANSPARENCY CONCERNS
In 2015, the Santa Clara County  Executive rejected the Sheriff’ s proposal to purchase a Stingray after  the  Board  of  Supervisors  questioned  the  expense  and  secrec y  o f  t h e  p r o j e c t .  T h e  B o a r d questioned how they could be asked to spend more than $500,000 of taxpayer money to approve a  purchase  that  was  shrouded  in  secrecy  even  from  the  Board  its elf.  The  County  Executive ultimately rejected the purchase because the company providing the Stingray refused to “agree to even the most basic criteria we have in terms of being responsive to public records requests… We had to do what we thought was right.”61

An informed debate also requires that your63
community have access to a wide range of
information in order to assess how surveillance
would work in practice and whether it would advance
local goals. Community meetings with various
speakers representing different perspectives (not just
law enforcement and the technology vendor) can
help the community understand how the surveillance
technology actually works and its potential
implications. The entity seeking to acquire new
surveillance technology should also prepare and
release a Surveillance Impact Report and a
Surveillance Use Policy to help everyone understand how a technology will work, its potential costs, and the safeguards that will prevent its misuse if the proposal were approved. Your community may also consider convening an ad-hoc committee of local
residents, experts and advocates who can work
together to make recommendations or help complete these documents.64 “It  is  critical  to  our  judicial  system  and  our
democracy that the  public and  our elected
representatives be informed about the use
of  these  devices  so  that  we  can  have  a

14 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES  How will the community decide whether to proceed with a surveillance proposal? Community members deserve more than just information about surveillance proposals: they need the opportunity to help determine whether the proposal actually benefits the community and how or whether it should move forward, either by giving input to local policymakers at public hearings or by casting their own ballot on the issue.

In either case, initial community approval should be obtained before any steps towards acquiring surveillance technology are taken, including applying for funding from outside entities. This ensures that external grants do not circumvent the proper democratic process and cut community members out of the loop. Local policymakers or the community as a whole should be given additional opportunities to weigh in if the proposal changes or as more details become available.65

2. DEFINE THE PURPOSE: ASK HOW AND WHETHER THIS TECHNOLOGY WILL AID YOUR COMMUNITY Your community cannot determine whether surveillance is an appropriate solution if you have not first identified the problem. Defining the specific purpose or issues that surveillance is intended to address is essential to evaluate the likely effectiveness of surveillance and to identify alternatives that might provide a better fit for your community’s needs and budget. It can help highlight the individuals or communities who are likely to be most impacted by surveillance and ensure that their thoughts and concerns are fully understood. It also provides a starting point for crafting a Surveillance Use Policy by defining specific objectives for which surveillance is appropriate and barring its use outside of those purposes.  What specific community purposes will be aided by adopting this technology? A well-defined community purpose should include a specific problem and a measurable outcome that the community desires. Vague purposes such as “protecting our city from criminals” make it difficult for the community to understand how surveillance might be used or how its effectiveness might be measured. In contrast, a purpose such as “increase recovery of stolen vehicles” succinctly identifies an outcome desired by community members and helps frame public discussion. That discussion may in turn lead you to narrow or alter the purposes for which surveillance should be used, if you decide to use it at all. 66 CASE STUDY: OAKLAND SPENDS $2M ON “HARDLY USED” POLICE TECHNOLOGY The  cash‐strapped  city  of  Oakland  learned  the  hard  way  that  acquiring  new  police  technology without a clearly defined purpose can be a waste of time and money. A city audit revealed that the city had squandered almost $2 million on hardly used police tec hnology between 2006 and 2011.

The  auditor  recommended  steps  to  ensure  that  technology  purchases  were  intended  to  fulfill specific strategic objectives and regular evaluation of their effectiveness.66 CASE STUDY: SAN JOSE’S DRONE GROUNDED UNTIL COMMUNITY APPROVES San Jose residents were outraged when they learned that their p olice department had purchased a drone without any public debate. Amid critical media coverage  and protests from community groups, civil‐rights advocates, an d local residents, police apo logized and said they would ground the drone until they could conduct adequate public outreach.65

 Will this surveillance technology help your community achieve that purpose? After your community identifies the purposes that surveillance technology might be able to address, you should evaluate whether the proposed technology would actually achieve them. Manufacturer’s claims should not be taken at face value, and certainly not in isolation. Instead, your community should look at all of the evidence or arguments suggesting that surveillance will or will not effectively help you achieve your defined purpose.67
 Are there better alternatives to achieve your purpose? Even if the proposed surveillance technology does seem likely to help your community achieve its purpose, there still may be alternatives that are just as (or more) effective, less expensive, and/or less likely to be misused or otherwise negatively impact your community members.

In particular, you should compare the effectiveness and costs of technology-based solutions with non- technology-oriented approaches to address the problem. For example, multiple studies have shown that traditional approaches such as increased lighting and foot patrols significantly reduce crime. 68 You should not automatically assume that surveillance technology will be more effective.69

3. IDENTIFY THE COSTS AND RISKS: EXAMINE FINANCIAL, LEGAL, AND PRACTICAL CONSEQUENCES Even if a specific technology is appropriate for your community’s purposes, there still may be financial, legal and practical concerns that may make adopting it undesirable. This section will help you measure the likely costs of surveillance so that you can determine whether they are truly outweighed by the expected benefits.

CASE STUDY: CITIES REPLACE RED LIGHT CAMERAS WITH LONGER YELLOW LIGHTS California  cities  are  increasingly  shutting  down  red  light  cameras  as  evidence  mounts  that  the cameras  increase,  rather  than  decrease,  traffic  accidents.  For example,  in  Walnut,  CA,  a  study found that red light cameras resulted in dramatic increases in “red light running collisions” (400%), “rear end collisions” (71%) and “broadside collisions” (100%)” and that “no argument can be made that photo enforcement has improved safety . . . within the cit y of Walnut. In fact, the use of red light cameras appears to have decreased safety and put roadway  users at increased risk.” In light of this evidence, more than half of the California cities that once used red light cameras have ended their  programs,  turning  instead  to  alternatives  that  have  proven  more  effective  at  preventing accidents such as longer yellow lights at dangerous intersections.69 CASE STUDY: SAN FRANCISCO RECONSIDERS PLANS TO EXPAND
SAFETY CAMERA PROGRAM THAT FAILS TO IMPROVE COMMUNITY SAFETY In 2005, San Francisco set out to  deter violent crime and provide police with an investigative tool by installing video cameras in the City’s high‐crime, high‐traf fic areas. However, p ost‐installation crime statistics published by ma ndate under a city ordinance re vealed that the cameras neither reduced crime nor assisted in solving them in any meaningful way. In fact, the cameras only led to six suspects being charged by the SFPD between 2005 and 2008. As a result, the Police Commission reconsidered its plans to expand the program.67

16 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES  How much will the technology cost your community to acquire and operate? Deciding how to allocate funds is one of your
community’s most important tasks. Every dollar
your community spends on surveillance
technology is a dollar it cannot spend on some
other community need. Costs related to
surveillance technology will include personnel
time, training costs, maintenance and upkeep, as
well as any network and storage costs for the
data your community may collect. Potential costs
associated with risks of data breach or lawsuits
based on abuse of surveillance also need to be
recognized.
70 Questions about costs cannot be dismissed solely
because your community is seeking grant funding to pay for the technology. These grants are attractive for obvious reasons: they appear to allow your community to buy a technology without having to spend local taxpayer dollars. But outside grants may not cover the costs that follow a technology’s adoption, particularly the long-term costs of operation, repairs, and personnel. Estimating these costs as accurately as possible — and making sure those estimates are shared with the community and made part of the debate about adopting surveillance — is key.
 What are the legal risks and associated potential costs of the surveillance proposal? Surveillance technology can carry a number of significant legal risks and requirements, in part because of rapid changes to privacy and surveillance law. Even under current law, misuse of surveillance systems or data, or technical glitches outside of your control could subject your community to potential legal liability.

And as courts and lawmakers continue to reassess how privacy and free speech rights should apply in the digital age, there is a risk that your community’s investment in surveillance technology could leave it saddled with equipment that can no longer be legally used as intended. These factors need to be accounted for when performing a cost-benefit analysis of any surveillance proposal. 71 “One more question to ask ourselves is whether
w e  a r e  c a r e f u l l y  c o n s i d e r i n g  t h e  i n f r a s t r u c t u r e that  is  needed  to  support  technology  —  the
costs of monitoring it and of staffing technology
units at a time when departments are laying off
civilians. We really need to think about all of the
aspects of technology when initial investments
are being made.”

 How could the surveillance proposal negatively impact public safety or individual rights? A surveillance proposal designed to benefit your community may carry side effects that undermine that objective. Insecure systems can present a tempting target for hackers, potentially making your community less safe in the process. Surveillance programs that target or disproportionately impact communities of color or other marginalized groups can make it harder for law enforcement to work cooperatively with those groups to investigate crimes. And surveillance can chill political and social engagement such as attendance at political rallies, gun shows, or religious ceremonies if community members fear that their lives are constantly being monitored. Identifying the harms as well as benefits of surveillance is an important part of evaluating any proposal.72
B. ESTABLISH A SURVEILLANCE USE POLICY TO MITIGATE HARMS AND PROTECT RIGHTS
If after careful consideration and public debate your community decides that a particular surveillance technology is worth adopting, you need to ensure that policies are in place so that it is used properly. A clear, legally enforceable Surveillance Use Policy that provides guidance about when and how to use surveillance can safeguard individual rights while protecting local law enforcement and your entire community from costly lawsuits, bad press, loss of community trust, and more. Recognizing the necessity of use policies, Seattle and Spokane, Washington, recently passed ordinances requiring police to develop use guidelines for new surveillance equipment before using it.73
74 CASE STUDY: REDLANDS DEPLOYS INSECURE CAMERA NETWORK The surveillance camera network in the city of Redlands made th e news for the wrong reasons when computer security experts demonstrated how easily they could take control of the cameras.

Although the police department expressed concern about “people  with criminal intent using the public  camera  feed  to  case  homes  or  businesses  or  track  the  police  force,”  the  network  was deployed  with  no  security  at  all.  Even  after  the  story  broke,  the  network  was  secured  with  an outdated encryption protocol that a researcher described as “pu tting a diary lock on your front door.”72

18 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES Here are some of the key elements of a robust, legally enforceable Surveillance Use policy:

1. USE APPROPRIATELY: PLACE CLEAR LIMITS ON SURVEILLANCE If your community has been following this guide, you’ve already defined community purposes that justify a particular technology. Now it’s time to use those purposes to decide and codify both the acceptable uses that will benefit the community and those that are simply prohibited. Doing so safeguards against use of the technology in a manner the community never intended.
 When is surveillance permitted or prohibited?
The first step is straightforward but essential: defining how and when the technology may be used. Every entity in your community that conducts surveillance should have a policy that clearly specifies appropriate uses of each technology and bars all other uses.

In order to benefit from and reflect community input and oversight, technology should only be used for the particular purposes for which it was acquired. Any proposed new uses should be subject to the same public discussion as the acquisition of new technology, allowing the community to weigh in on the appropriateness of any expanded purpose.

Your policy needs to be consistent with constitutional
guarantees of privacy, equal protection, freedom of
speech, and freedom of religion. In fact, your use
policy should not only address clearly unlawful but
also potentially unlawful uses of surveillance
technology. If there are questions about the legality of a specific practice, your use policy should prohibit that practice until there is a definite answer.
75  What legal or internal process is required to use surveillance? It is also important to ensure that all legally required and internal processes are followed each time surveillance is used. These processes help to prevent unauthorized or outright illegal uses and also make sure that even appropriate uses of the surveillance technology minimize the impact on individual rights.76 In many cases, the best way to ensure that legal requirements are satisfied is to require a search warrant prior to conducting surveillance, allowing the court system to play a role in overseeing the program. With the streamlined modern warrant process, officers can seek a judge’s approval quickly and easily by simply placing a phone call or using a mobile device.77
Internal recordkeeping, including recording the reason for each use of surveillance, can also help ensure compliance with the appropriate use policy and create an audit trail for ongoing feedback and oversight.  How are officers trained before they conduct surveillance? Having clear policies is not helpful if the people using the technology or the data it collects lack the underlying knowledge to comply with those policies. Training programs for anyone involved with surveillance must be comprehensive, encompassing not just the technology and Surveillance Use Policy but the purposes and legal rules that inform the Policy. Training should spell out both the obligations of anyone using the technology and the consequences for policy violations.

The police need to “have more of a dialog
with the council, because we are the ones
that . . . approve funding decisions and we
want to make sure . . . that you are

 Are you only collecting necessary data?
Ensuring that surveillance technology is used in a way that accomplishes its stated purpose without collecting additional data is a straightforward way to reduce the risk of privacy invasions. That’s why the federal statute authorizing wiretaps has from its inception required “minimization” — an effort to make sure that even after a warrant has been issued and collection is underway, police only intercept communications relevant to the investigation, not every communication made by the target.78 The same principle should be applied to other forms of surveillance, requiring a reasonable effort to avoid collecting superfluous information. For example, a police department that deploys drones to an accident scene to quickly identify any need for police or emergency intervention does not need to record and retain video footage.79

2. PREVENT MISUSE OF DATA: LIMIT WHEN DATA CAN BE USED AND WHO CAN ACCESS IT Even data collected for a legitimate purpose can be put to illegitimate uses. It is essential that your community establish clear rules so that surveillance data is used only for approved purposes. Doing so not only prevents outright abuses of the data that can erode public trust but also keeps “mission creep” from altering the balance that you have already worked out between government actions and individual liberties.  How will surveillance data be secured?
The first step in preventing misuse of data is ensuring that it is stored securely. Technical safeguards are necessary to help protect community members’ data from accidental disclosure and misuse. You should consult with experts and implement safeguards at multiple levels that protect data at all points in its lifespan.

Your community may already possess secure storage space separated from other databases and computer systems. This provides you with an obvious level of control. If you choose to store data elsewhere, you must ensure that it is secure and subject to your safeguards. Your community should also designate someone as an authority or custodian with responsibility over community members’ data and your storage systems. 80
CASE STUDY: OHIO STATE HIGHWAY PATROL RETAINS ONLY ALPR HITS The Ohio State Highway Patrol policy for automated license plate readers (ALPRs) states, “all ‘non‐ hit’  captures  shall  be  deleted  immediately.”  The  ALPR  program  i s  intended  to  detect  stolen vehicles, Amber Alerts, and persons with outstanding warrants.  As a result, retaining data about “non‐hit” vehicles does not further that purpose, and a policy  of deleting that data immediately protects the community from unnecessary risks.79

20 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES  Under what circumstances can collected data be accessed or used? In addition to technical safeguards to protect data, you should also limit the circumstances under which it can be legitimately accessed or used. These limits should be based on the specific purposes your community agreed to when it adopted the technology. For example, if the purpose of the technology is to address specific violent crimes, your policy might allow database searches only as part of an official investigation of a violent crime, and only for data that is related to that investigation. Data access and use policies that are consistent with the articulated purposes for the system will provide guidance to operators and engender community trust by deterring abuses that can follow unfettered access to surveillance data.

Your community’s goal of balancing privacy and security will be easier to achieve if particular data access and use limits are accompanied by steps to ensure the rules are followed. Database access should be limited — for example, by only allowing junior staff to access data with the permission and guidance of a more senior officer, or by limiting data access solely to senior officers. As explained earlier, training is a must. Restricting data access to a limited set of trained employees decreases the potential that community members’ data can be misused. To ensure targeted use of data, it may be appropriate to require a search warrant or similar external process before the data can be accessed at all. 81  What limits exist on sharing data with outside entities? Placing limits on how data use is a great step, but third parties that receive the collected data may not have the same limits in place. To protect residents’ privacy and prevent uses of information contrary to community desires, it is important to articulate when — if ever — the technology’s purposes justify sharing any collected information. During the public debate over your Surveillance Use Policy, the community should decide when sharing is permissible and when it is prohibited.

If data can be shared, your community must also determine how to ensure that the entity receiving the data lives up to your community’s standards. This may require contractual language binding the third party to your data policies and safeguards. For example, the city of Menlo Park, California, specifically requires by ordinance that any agreement with Northern California’s fusion center demand compliance with the City’s own retention policy.82 If a potential recipient of your data cannot agree with your policies or conditions, the best choice is to not share your data.

3. LIMIT DATA RETENTION: KEEP INFORMATION ONLY AS LONG AS NECESSARY The longer you retain information, the greater the potential privacy and security risks. The easiest way to minimize these risks is to retain only necessary information and to delete it after the purpose for its collection is achieved.

CASE STUDY: LAX POLICIES LEAD TO “LOVEINT” ABUSE
Without strong policies limiting access to data, the temptation  to misuse government databases for  personal  interests  can  be  hard  to  resist.  The  NSA  even  has a  specific  term,  LOVEINT,  for employees  who  monitor  their  significant  others.  Two  Fairfield, C A ,  o f f i c e r s  c o u l d  f a c e  c r i m i n a l charges after using a statewide police database to screen women from online dating sites.81

 Does retaining data help accomplish the purpose for which the technology was acquired? To maximize the usefulness of your technology and minimize civil liberties concerns, a retention period should not be longer than necessary to directly advance community purposes. For instance, deploying automated license plate readers to83
locate stolen or Amber Alert vehicles
is not aided by the collection of
historical data. Retaining data “just in
case it becomes useful” increases the
risk that data will be used contrary to
the purpose agreed upon by the
community or wind up in the hands of
a bad actor. Retaining data can also increase the costs of surveillance by requiring expensive storage solutions and making it harder to effectively use the system. Focusing on the specific objective that surveillance is intended to accomplish can help you determine a retention period that balances that objective with the costs and risks associated with data retention.  Are there other legal or policy reasons that inform your data retention policy? There may be other legal and policy issues that affect your data retention policy, informed by legal concerns unrelated to your community’s purposes. For example, your community should choose a retention period that balances a desire to be responsive to public records requests with residents’ civil liberties, including privacy. Responsiveness to records requests should not be a primary justification for an extended retention period, however, since community concerns about surveillance are better addressed by retaining less information in the first place.  What happens when the data retention period expires?
To prevent misuse of data after your community’s desired retention period has lapsed, ensure that data is regularly deleted after that time. This can be accomplished via automated technical measures or periodic audits.

Before data is collected, your community should also decide whether there are any specific circumstances that justify the retention of data beyond your community’s chosen retention period. For instance, it might be appropriate to preserve data relevant to a specific ongoing investigation, data necessary to complete an investigation of internal data misuse, and data relevant to a criminal defendant’s case. Any such conditions should be informed by your community’s purposes and clearly articulated in your Surveillance Use Policy.

C. ENSURE ACCOUNTABILITY BY ENFORCING POLICIES AND ENCOURAGING ONGOING PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT
Even if your community has already deployed surveillance technology, the community as a whole has a crucial role in ensuring that the public interest is promoted through its use. One key question is whether your Surveillance Use Policy is effectively safeguarding individual rights and preventing abuses. A second is whether the assumptions you made when you approved surveillance in the first place still hold true after actual experience with the technology and its impact. Revamping or even cancelling an ineffective or imbalanced program is better than wasting time, money, and community trust on a tool that does more harm than good.
“If there’s anything of a criminal nature recorded on video, it’s  grabbed  and  inventoried  within  hours.  Most
everything  else  is  never  looked  at  again,  so  it’s  purged automatically.”

22 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES

1. IDENTIFY AND ADDRESS ABUSES: AUDIT USE OF TECHNOLOGIES AND DATA AND ADDRESS ANY MISUSE The safeguards in your Surveillance Use Policy are only worthwhile if the policy is actually followed. But given the secretive nature of many forms of surveillance, ensuring compliance takes conscious effort. Strong internal and external oversight and auditing can help identify isolated or systemic abuses of surveillance technology, and legally enforceable sanctions can deter both.  How are operators supervised?
Personnel management and technical measures both
facilitate internal oversight of your technology and data.

Designating a chain of command for a given surveillance technology helps specific personnel understand what
responsibilities they have over the equipment or data and makes it easy to trace where misuse occurred. All of this helps your community deter abuses and guarantee that
resources are used wisely.
84  How will misuses of the technology be identified?
The best way to identify misuse of surveillance is to “watch the watchers” by keeping thorough records of each time surveillance is deployed or surveillance data is called up. The person or persons with oversight responsibility should be independent, given full access to the technology and database, and empowered to receive complaints about misuse and draw conclusions that can lead to legally enforceable consequences. To catch what human oversight misses, your community should ensure that technical measures including access controls and audit logs are in place. Placing the oversight authority with a third party such as the City Council or a citizen panel may also increase the likelihood that the misuses are accurately identified.
85  What legally enforceable sanctions exist to deter misuse and abuse of this technology? By establishing consequences for violations of the guidelines, your community encourages proper use of the technology and sends a message that community values apply to everyone. Depending on the circumstances, sanctions ranging from retraining to fines, suspensions, or termination may be appropriate for violations of your Surveillance Use Policy. In addition, your community should provide an appropriate remedy for anyone harmed by an abuse. Legally enforceable sanctions discourage misuse and guarantee that aggrieved community members will be made whole. “As  stewards  of  the  public’s
interests, we know the government
doesn’t  get  to  simply  say  ‘trust  us’
and  carry  on:  we  have  to  earn  that
trust on a daily basis. We have to be
accountable and transparent….”
Former Oakland Mayor Jean Quan84
CASE STUDY: FRESNO ADOPTS ANNUAL AUDIT OF VIDEO SURVEILLANCE When the Fresno Police Department proposed a citywide video‐pol icing program using live‐feed cameras, the city council required an annual independent audit  to ensure that all of the privacy and security guidelines for the  system’s use were being followe d. Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said he supported the audit: “I have no doubt the audit will be  very helpful to our ongoing video policing operations.” The city appointed a retired federal district court judge as auditor, who then examined current use of the system and made specific policy recommendations.85

2. KEEP THE DIALOG OPEN: ENCOURAGE PUBLIC OVERSIGHT AND ONGOING DISCUSSION Community oversight and feedback plays two essential roles in ensuring that any current surveillance program actually benefits your community. First, transparency about abuses of surveillance allows the community to determine whether the Surveillance Use Policy or any associated sanctions need to be revised to address the issue. Second, as your community learns first-hand whether surveillance is effective and how it impacts different individuals and groups, you may wish to reassess the purposes for which surveillance should be used or even whether it should still be used at all. Surveillance should be under the control of the community at all times, not just when it is initially being considered.
 How will the community continue to be informed about the surveillance program? It is important that your community’s oversight mechanisms not only are in place before surveillance is used but also remain available as long as the surveillance program continues or any collected data remains. This allows the community to continue to learn about and provide feedback on the effectiveness and impact of surveillance, and provides the information you will need to evaluate any changes going forward.

One of the most effective ways to keep your community informed is to produce an annual report about each surveillance technology that has been used in the past year. This report should include:
o A description of how and how often the technology was used; o Information, including crime statistics, that indicate whether the technology was effective at accomplishing its stated purpose;
o A summary of community complaints or concerns about the technology; o Information about any violations of the Surveillance Use Policy, data breaches, or similar incidents, including the actions taken in response, or results of any internal audits; o Whether and how data acquired through the use of the technology was shared with any outside entities;
o Statistics and information about Public Records Act requests, including responses; and o The total annual costs for the technology, including personnel and other ongoing costs, and any external funding available to fund any or all of those costs in the coming year.

In addition, there may be other ways to provide your community with information about the operation and effectiveness of the surveillance program. Responding to Public Records Act requests with as much information as possible, taking into account factors such as the privacy rights of individuals whose information may be included in the requested data, is one way to allow interested community members access to concrete information about the program. Creating standing committees of community members, regularly holding public events and forums, and establishing open inspection periods for the technology can also help keep the community informed.
 How will local officials and the public re‐evaluate the decision to engage in surveillance or the existing policies and safeguards?
The community’s decision to approve surveillance should be reconsidered on an annual basis. If there is evidence that calls into question the conclusion that the benefits of surveillance outweigh costs and concerns, or that there are better ways to achieve the same purpose with fewer costs or risks, policymakers should seek community input and take whatever action is appropriate to address these concerns. That may involve narrowing the purpose or scope of surveillance, requiring modifications to the Surveillance Use Policy, or exploring alternatives that better address community needs.

24 MAKING SMART DECISIONS ABOUT SURVEILLANCE: A GUIDE FOR COMMUNITIES Conclusion
Communities increasingly understand the need to make smart choices about surveillance technology and ensure that time, energy, and resources are not spent on systems that cost more, do less, and threaten the rights of community members. Community members demand — and deserve — a voice in any decisions about surveillance technology. Proper transparency, accountability, and oversight must be the rule in considering any surveillance technology proposal. We hope the recommendations in this guide help you work to enact local and state policies to ensure consistent public process each time surveillance technology is considered.

Police are spending billions of
dollars on very sophisticated
and invasive surveillance
technology. Too many of these
programs are moving forward
without public conversation,
careful consideration of the
costs and benefits, or adequate
policies in place to prevent
misuse and protect rights.

This guide provides a step-
by-step framework to
ask and answer the right
questions about surveillance
proposals and build in proper
mechanisms for transparency,
accountability, and oversight.

The guide also includes dozens
of case studies highlighting
smart approaches and missteps
to avoid and model language
for policymakers to adopt to
make sure the right process is
used every time a surveillance
proposal is considered.
“ The ACLU’s approach to vetting new technologies is so pragmatic that cities, counties and law enforcement
agencies throughout California would be foolish
not to embrace it. ”
–Editorial, Los Angeles Times
“ We urge more city and county governments to…[study]
an ordinance that would set specific rules about what
can be done with citizens’ private information. ”
–Editorial, San Francisco Chronicle

“ It’s easy to see the value in [ACLU’s] approach—in all areas of government... “
– Steven Greenhut, San Diego Union-Tribune
“ Elected leaders, not police departments, should set
policy for the use of surveillance equipment. This is the ACLU recommendation. It’s also common sense. “

City of Palo Alto (ID # 14123)
City Council Staff Report

Meeting Date: 10/24/2022 Report Type: Consent Calendar

City of Palo Alto Page 1

Title: Approval of Contract Amendment No. Two with GovernmentJobs.com, Inc. dba Neogov for Recruiting and Onboarding Services, to Extend the Term through June 30, 2025, Add Services, and Increase Compensation by an Amount Not -To-Exceed $249,883 for a New C ontract Total Not -To-Exceed Amount of $411,323
From: City Manager
Lead Department: IT Department

Recommendation
Staff recommends that Council approve and authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute the attached contract Amendment N o. Two (Attachment A) to Contract No. S17167826 with Governmentjobs.com , Inc. D/B/A NeoGov , for the provision of hiring, onboarding and performance review services, in order to add three- years and two months to the term (to end June 30, 2025) , add services, and to increase the compensation by the amount of $ 249,883 for a new total not -to-exceed contract amount of $411,323.

Background
The City’s Human Resources Department is responsible for recruiting, onboarding and retaining a talented and diverse workforce to ser ve our community. On average , the City recruits and onboards more than 150 new employees annually. To help facilitate this process, the City uses a cloud -based applicant management and employee onboarding portal from Governmentjobs.com, Inc. D/B/A NeoGov (NeoGov). NeoGov is an industry leader in providing cloud -based software that centralizes the process of attracting, screening, and onboarding a new employee. NeoGov is utilized by more than 6,000 public sector organizations across the United States.

In 2 011, the City entered into a contract with NeoGov to provide its cloud -based Applicant Management System called “NeoGov Insight .” Insight allowed the City to automate its hiring process by providing a robust platform to post job announcements, accept online job applications and track applicants through each step of the recruitment process.

In 201 6, the City added the Onboarding module called NeoGov Onboard. Onboard 4 Packet Pg. 53

City of Palo Alto Page 2

seamlessly integrated with NeoGov Insight to enhance and simplify the applicant experience. Once hired, applicants complete all new hire paperwork through a centralized online dashboard. Onboard is also used to provide newly hired employees with an overview of all City benefits, including the ability to complete their benefit enrollment paperwork online. Onboard has significantly eliminated manual paperwork process for both applicants and City staff . Two additional modules were added in 2020, Candidate Text Messaging and Background Check s, via contract Amendment No. One (Attachment B).

Discussion
NeoGov has provided many efficiencies to the City’s recruitment and onboarding process. The Insight portal has made the recruitment process more efficient by providing a centralized method to post job announcements and intake, automated application review for hiring managers, automated interview scheduling and completing job offers. The Onboard portal provided a solution to move manual, time consuming, paper-based process to an online platform for an efficient and streamlined experience for all involved. Insight’s built-in analytics and reporting on recruitment status based on individual positions provides the capability for the Human Resources team to make data-driven decisions about current and future recruitments. With this amendment, the City will also have the capability for SSO (Single Sign On) for users, which will provide further security and a streamlined login process for staff. This additional feature is in alignment with the City’s ongoing cybersecurity priorities and enhancements as outlined in the recent Baker Tilly Risk Assessment.

After recruiting and onboarding an employee, the next step in the NeoGov employee lifecycle is performance management and employee development. NeoGov’s “Perform” module provides an online platform for managers a nd employees to complete performance evaluations. NeoGov’s Perform module will replace the current manual, paper-based process the City utilizes. Perform will allow employees and managers to set short- and long-term performance and development goals that c an be tracked using an online automated process. This will assist managers and employees to have frequent check-ins and provide continuous feedback. Staff expects to roll out Perform in 202 3.

With this roll out, staff will have access to reports and dashbo ards which increase our ability to analyze individual employees, teams, or departmental data to identify skill gaps across the organization and optimize employee development.

Upcoming Procurement Process
The City's current need to stabilize recruitment an d retain talented employees is a priority. Staff acknowledge and agree that a formal solicitation is needed. At this moment, staff also recognize the potential time intensive process to both select and transition to a new vendor and that will distract fro m current priorities of focusing on and prioritizing robust recruitment . In addition, changes in platform will require thousands of potential applicants who have registered with the current system to re - apply and create a new candidate profile, this additi onal friction point may impact 4 Packet Pg. 54

City of Palo Alto Page 3

interest and applicant pool.

To address these priorities and the need for a procurement process, d uring the next three years of this contract, staff has a three-step process that they will engage in:

1. Step 1: During the firs t year of the contract, staff will continue to stabilize and enhance the City's recruitment and retention efforts.

2. Step 2: During the second year of the contract, staff will engage and conduct a formal public procurement (RFP) process.

3. Step 3: During the t hird year of the contract, staff will complete the implementation process (or continue with existing services depending on the results of the procurement process).

An exemption to competitive solicitation was approved by the City Manager pursuant to PAMC 2.30.360(b)(2) in acknowledgement of the critical time the organization faces and with the clear understanding of next steps outlined above.

Resource Impact
Funds for Fiscal Year 202 3 costs have been budgeted in the Information Technology Fund. Ongoing maintenance costs are subject to annual appro priation of costs through the annual budgeting cycle.

written amendment to the Agreement executed by the authorized representatives of the parties and approved as required under Palo Alto Municipal Code.

b) Taxes. Any app licable taxes will be determined based on the laws and regulations of the taxing authority(ies) governing the C ustomer’s address as provided in the Agreement, which is in the State of California. All fees under the Agreement are exclusive of any applicable taxes. It is the understanding of the parties that online-hosted software, such as the SAAS Services provided under the Agreement, is not “tangible personal property” and is therefore not taxable under Title 18 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 1502(f)(1)(C)-(D). If this understanding should prove to be incorrect, Customer will pay all taxes, duties and levies imposed by all federal, state, and local authorities (including, without limitation, export, sales, use, excise, and value-added taxes) based on the transactions or payments under the Agreement (collectively, “Sales Taxes”) , except those taxes imposed or based on NEOGOV’s net income or those exempt by applicable state law. Customer shall provide NEOGOV with a certificate or other evidence of such exemption with in ten (10) days of NEOGOV’s request therefor , or as soon as practicable if such certificate is dependent upon issuance by a federal or state government entity. If any Sales Taxes are found at any time to be payable, and are assessed by the taxing authority against NEOGOV, the amount may be billed by NEOGOV to Customer with supporting documentation, and shall be paid by Customer pursuant to an amendment to the Agreement as provided for in the Agreement.

c) Customer Purchase Orders. Except as otherwise specified in the Agreement, Customer will not require any purchase order to pay fees due or otherwise to perfo rm its obligations with respect to any amount due under the Agreement . Any reference to a purchase order in any associated invoice is solely for Customer's convenience in record keeping, and no such reference or any delivery of services to Customer following receipt of any purchase order shall be deemed an acknowledgement of or an agreement to any terms or conditions referenced or included in any such purchase order. If a purchase order is delivered by Customer in connection with the purchase of Services under the Agreement, none of the terms and conditions contained in such p urchase order shall modify or supersede the terms and conditions of th e Agreement. NEOGOV’s failure to object to terms contained in any such p urchase order shall not be a waiver of the terms set forth in this provision or in the Agreement.

6. Term and Termination.

a) Term. The term (“Term”) of this Services Agreement is the same as the term of the Agreement as specified in Section 3 (Term) therein . “Subscription Term” means the term of any SaaS Application provided to Customer as detailed in the Scope of Services of the Agreement if the term of Customer’s use of and access to such SaaS Application is less than the full term of this Agreement.

b) Termination for Cause; Effect of Termination. In addition to the provisions of Section R (Termination) of the Agreement, either Party may terminate the Agreement immediately if the other is in material breach of the Agreement and such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days following non -breaching party’s written specification of the breach. NEOGOV may suspend the Customer’s use of the Services immediately in the event the Customer’s use of the Services poses a security risk to the SaaS Services or in the event NEOGOV reasonably believes that Customer’s use of the SaaS Services has become illegal or contrary to any applicable law, rule, regulation, or public policy , and NEOGOV will restore Customer’s use of the Services promptly upon cure of the Customer use that posed the security risk to the SaaS Services. Any failure by Customer to cure the Customer use that posed the security risk to the SaaS Services shall be addressed as a material breach under the first sentence of this Section 6(b), and NEOGOV may terminate this Agreement under that first sentence of this Section 6(b). Customer shall pay NEOGOV for Services (including SaaS Services) provided up to the effective date of termination. In the event of a termination for cause by Customer due to NEOGOV’s material, uncured breach, Customer shall have no payment DocuSign Envelope ID: 1F042859-5DEC-480A-9269-BEE827046A76

Exhibit A
Government Customer Addendum

If Customer is a Government Customer, the following Government Customer Addendum (“Government Addendum”) forms part of the Services Agreement, and in the case of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and provisions of this Addendum and any other provision of the Services Agreement, the terms of this Government Addendum shall control. For purposes hereof, a “Government Customer” means a Customer which is a (a) U.S. Federal agency, (b) state government, agency, department, or political subdivision (including a city, county or municipal corporation), or (c) instrumentality of any of the foregoing (including a municipal hospital or municipal hospital district, police or fire department, public library, park district, state college or university, Indian tribal economic development organization, or port authority).

1. Applicability. The provisions of this Addendum shall apply only if Customer is a Government Customer under the Services Agreement. The parties understand and acknowledge that the Customer, being the City of Palo Alto, is a California municipal corporation and charter city, and that Customer therefore constitutes a Government Customer for purposes of this Government Addendum.

2. Termination for Non-Appropriation of Funds. If Customer is subject to federal, state or local law which makes Customer’s financial obligations under this Services Agreement contingent upon sufficient appropriation of funds by the applicable legislature (or other appropriate governmental body), and if such funds are not forthcoming or are insufficient due to failure of such appropriation, then Customer will have the right to terminate the Services Agreement at no additional cost and with no penalty by giving prior written notice documenting the lack of funding. C ustomer will provide at least thirty (30) days advance written notice of such termination. Customer will use reasonable efforts to ensure appropriated funds are available.

3. [RESERVED (Indemnification)].

4. Open Records. If the Customer is subject to federal , state or local public meeting and/or public records laws, including laws styled as open meeting, open records, freedom of information, or sunshine laws (“Open Records Laws”) the confidentiality requirements of Section 12 (Nondisclosure) of the Services Agreement apply to Customer only to the extent permitted by Open Records Laws applicable to the Customer. This Section 4 (Open Records) is not intended to be a waiver of any of the provisions of the applicable Open Records Laws, including, without limitation, any requirement for the Customer to provide notice and opportunity for NEOGOV to assert an exception to disclosure requirements in accordance with the applicable Open Records laws. In the event the Customer receives a public records request covering NEOGOV’s Confidential Information, the Customer will, promptly following receipt, give notice to NEOGOV of such request in case NEOGOV wishes to take legal action to prevent disclosure if NEOGOV so chooses. Nothing in this Section 4 (Open Records) or in Section 12 (Nondisclosure) of this Services Agreement shall require the Customer to take any action, or to refuse to release information, where doing so would violate applicable law or court order.

5. Cooperative Purchasing. If Customer is a Government Customer, but is not a U.S. Federal Agency or subdivision thereof, NEOGOV agrees to allow any other state agency, department, political subdivision or instrumentality of the state but in all cases located in the same state as the Customer (“Related Agency”) to purchase Services under the terms of the Services Agreement, at the Related Agency’s discretion with the following requirements, exceptions and limitations: (a) any purchases made by a Related Agency shall be transactions between the Related Agency and NEOGOV; for clarity, Customer shall not be responsible for any transactions between the Related Agency and NEOGOV, (b) the terms (including pricing) specified DocuSign Envelope ID: 1F042859-5DEC-480A-9269-BEE827046A76
