California lawmakers move to rein in private detention facilities
CC4J says it will address Chico City Council on data sharing
The Concerned Community for Justice (CC4J) says it’s encouraging people to address the Chico Police Department’s “negligence in allowing ICE and Border Patrol to access its Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR) data” at the upcoming meeting Tuesday.
In a recent press release, CC4J asks community members to oppose “warrantless mass surveillance that ALPRs facilitate” during the public comment period at the City Council’s Aug. 18 meeting.
At that meeting, the Council will also consider a four-year police union contract that covers pay, benefits and other employment conditions, and would provide officers with 14.5% raises by 2029. No changes have been made to the agreement since the Council’s failure to approve it at a July meeting. The proposed amendments to the contract are estimated to cost $5.8 million over the four-year term.
The meeting will take place at 6 p.m. at 421 Main Street.
