Monte Sereno is last West Valley city to install license plate readers
Briefly

On January 21, the Monte Sereno City Council endorsed a plan to install 20 automatic license plate readers (ALPRs), becoming the last city in West Valley to adopt this technology. The council had discussed this initiative earlier on January 7 and decided to proceed after addressing potential legal concerns. The ALPRs will enhance surveillance in conjunction with 17 existing cameras in Los Gatos. The technology is intended to provide broader safety coverage, and the council plans to fund it partly through a state grant, pushing the installation timeline to July 1.
Monte Sereno's endorsement of the installation of 20 ALPRs marks the city's commitment to enhancing public safety and crime-solving capabilities.
Councilmember Bryan Mekechuk highlighted the geographical intricacies, noting how ALPRs will improve safety across city boundaries, benefitting neighboring residents.
