Przybylinski, Zygas, Tillman, Fitzpatrick, and Dabney regarding the automatic license plate readers being proposed to our city. President Deuitch asked if there were any comments from the public. Tommy Kulavik, 1316 Ohio Street stated that there should be Flock camera on every corner; commenting on reasons why he feels that these cameras are needed and asked how soon this company can deliver and get this project moving forward. Rodney McCormick, 617 Union Street stated that technology is not the problem, technology won’t corrupt but individuals that run the technology can; advising that he is in favor of this project but we want something in return; commenting on body cam footage that if a citizen request to see it they shouldn’t have to beg for it; we keep giving to the police but again we don’t get anything in return. Mr. McCormick stated several issues he received from many neighbors in our community with problems they have had with our police department asking this council to pay attention to all aspects about what is being proposed as you move forward. Bruce Metic, 619 Hobart Street asked if we move forward with the cameras; will the City own the cameras and Folk be responsible to destroy the data every thirty (30) days. Folk representative advised that you could do an amazon service/government cloud; stating the government cloud is the most secure cloud server that is available and that Folk is only the stewards; Michigan City owns the data and is the setting that we have set up to automatically deletes data every 30 days on a one basis for this break. Mr. Metic asked if Folk has a good record in terms of defense council attacking your system in defense of cases; with Folk representatives advising that they have a team of ten (10) security engineers full time on our staff that are actively looking for bugs, and they have bounty programs out that they’re asking people to hack our system and they haven’t been able to; also advising that we all have to do training every single week, as users, because that’s usually your most vulnerable place to hack is users, fishing scams and that sort of things. Ken Fly, 211 Fulton Street stated that this was a good presentation from Folk advising this Council has heard all the “pro’s” regarding these automatic license plate readers; asking what are some of “con’s” some issues/things that were wrong and didn’t work that you have come across, getting where you are today; questioning if this is another form of being able to racial profile our community; especially where these cameras are going to be located. Chief Campbell addressed Mr. Fly’s comments advising that we’re profiling crime when looking at statistics and that these cameras belong in our high crime areas; if that just so happens to be in the black community; are we saying that just because it’s the black community, we’re going to allow crime to happen there; “I think not” and that what we are doing is looking at our entire community and neighborhoods in Michigan City and where the crime is located with it only making sense to put this technology where you have your high crime areas; with this technology being in indiscriminate and no facial recognition. Councilman Fitzpatrick stated from his professional perspective as a death investigator; questioning the thirty (30) day retention it being deleted, is it being deleted from your database or from data base that the city has access to if it’s deleted from the cloud; asking if after thirty (30) days does it go to the Flock’s data base or the City’s data base. Flock’s representative advised with the thirty (30) day retention; it is deleted from the data base, advising that the City has access to its deleted data from the cloud after the thirty (30) days; stating that if it is needed for a piece of evidence police can download it and save it in their normal evidence management system. Page 4 July 05. 2022 Discussion ensued between President Deuitch, Councilman Fitzpatrick, Councilwoman Zygas and Flock’s representatives regarding the thirty (30) day timeframe of deleting data that will be saved in our data base and what is saved in the cloud, and that the timeframe of thirty (30) days could be changed, but it would have to be done through an ordinance being adopted. Councilman Dabney wanted to address Mr. Fly’s comments before he left, stating that if everyone will recall the last council went through this license plate reader with that system would have been attached to the front of each police vehicle which when riding around certain neighborhoods would have targeted certain neighborhoods with the last council unanimously voting this system down because of that concern; believing that this is going to be a good system to help get our crime statistics down. Councilwoman Tillman asked about the trial period, that we will have an opportunity to do a sixty (60) trial and that this something she hopes the police department will be able to implement in and review/process showing the pros and cons along with giving this council some data to come back and look at. President Deuitch asked how the weather affects or impact the system; advising the equipment is solar powered, and we do what is called winterization each year,that they make enough solar battery packs that last throughout winter months President Deuitch asked if there were any other reports from the mayor or other city officers or departments. Chief Doug Legault commented giving a big thank you and stating how proud he is of his firefighters and lifeguards for the great job they are doing, as all of you probably know there were nine (9) people saved over this last 4th of July weekend; seven of them were pulled out by our lifeguards, one incident was saved by a citizen and the ninth Firefighter Kyle Kish from our dive team saved this person; and because of these nine (9) people being saved their families are now enjoying their family members instead of basically scheduling a funeral; and that there has been thirteen (13) structure fires during the month of May and June. Chief Lagault stated that Councilman D. Przybylinski also asked to get him the information on overdoses within our community; advising the information isn’t pin point but there has been one-hundred and forty seven (147) overdoses from January 1st to date in Laporte County with seventy-six (76) of them from the Michigan City area. Councilman D. Przybylinski thanked Chief Lagault for attending our meeting this evening and giving us this information; requesting if the council could get a monthly report regarding “overdoses” would be greatly appreciated, that this amount of people overdosing let us know we definitely have a problem. Councilman D. Przybylinski thanked the fire department and the lifeguards for all they do in our community. Councilman Fitzpatrick asked if the amount of overdoses in our city could be tracked by looking at the addresses to get the actual amount of people. Chief Lagault advised there are thousands of medicals calls to go through; advising that he is working on the totals.
