I see that the City Council has delayed a vote on whether to lease and deploy license plate readers. While I appreciate the desire of law-breakers to protect their privacy, I believe the needs of public safety trump (sorry) that desire. Incidentally, the Santa Cruz City Council voted — unanimously – in 2013 to purchase license plate readers. Because the grant for that purchase expired before it was acted upon, the equipment was not acquired. I sincerely hope that the mayor, and the council, will remedy this decade-old oversight at their December meeting.
