License Plate Readers (LPR)

The use of License Plate Readers has been proposed to the Washtenaw County Sheriff’s Office. Prior to any decisions being made about the use of new technology, the WCSO has a process of seeking community feedback.  In April of 2022 we began a community conversation with our online community education series discussion with the Sheriff. You can view that presentation here. 

Following the presentation were a series of community conversations with various community groups and a community feedback survey. The goal of these sessions was not about convincing anyone, but was about listening, understanding and learning. Taking all information into consideration a decision was made by the Sheriff to allow the use of LPR technology in alignment with our values and in the limited scope laid out in our policy.
