Ventura County cities debate license plate reader cameras

A growing number of residents across Ventura County are raising concerns about privacy, surveillance and data collection from the use of automated license plate reader cameras. The systems are used in nearly every city in the county, including areas patrolled by the Ventura County Sheriff’s Office. Ventura is among the latest cities debating the technology, which uses cameras mounted on poles and patrol vehicles to capture license plate information. The Ventura City Council plans to review options for the police department’s use of the cameras on 5 p.m. Nov. 12 at a special meeting , said Police Chief David Dickey. Council members could renew or terminate the existing contract, according to the staff report. Also known as Flock Safety cameras, these devices have drawn national attention following reports of unauthorized access to footage that led to arrests and investigations involving police and sheriff’s officers. Ventura resident and activist Michelle Rosenblum said she opposes the cameras and plans to tell the City Council to cancel the contract with Flock at the meeting. “It is a tremendous violation of our privacy,” she said. “To me, what’s the difference between having Flock cameras on every corner versus us all having to wear ankle

Ventura teachers, other workers set date for planned strike

(This story has been updated to correct an error regarding the expiration dates of the previous union contracts.) Teachers and other school employees in Ventura will go on strike on Dec. 2 if they haven’t agreed on a new union contract by then. The union for teachers and the one for other employees held a news conference Nov. 12 outside of the Ventura Unified School District’s adult education center, where union members and leaders announced the upcoming strike date. Members of the two unions voted nearly unanimously last month to authorize a strike if they couldn't reach an agreement with the district on a new contract. With almost 14,000 students, Ventura Unified is the fourth largest school district in Ventura County. A strike would be the first in the district's history, and probably the first in the county's history, union officials said. "We are ready to fight for a fair and equitable contract," said Carol Peek, the president of the union for most non-teacher employees. "We are ready to strike for an agreement that we all deserve." The two sides are still trying to avert a strike. The bargaining teams met twice earlier in the week, days before the union's
