Vallejo Leaders Call for 'Guardrails' on Gunshot Detection Tech
The Vallejo City Council has unanimously rejected a $210,000 contract for Flock Safety's Raven gunshot detection technology.
The council expressed concerns about the company and data privacy, seeking a policy with "guardrails" for data storage and use.
- Flock Safety provides automated license plate readers, already used by the Vallejo Police Department.
- The police department has been using the gunshot detection tech for free during a one-year beta test.
No specific policy is in place for data storage and use, prompting the council to request further action from city staff.
