Chief (identified in the meeting as "chief") responded to privacy concerns about the citys automated license-plate reader (ALPR) system, saying it provides investigative leads and citing specific recoveries: a stolen truck from Ohio, robbery suspects and a missing elderly dementia patient found disoriented and without medication. He framed the system as a public-safety tool and contrasted it with other common data sources such as toll receipts and social-media tracking.
