CityCouncil | 2021-03-16 | 30 | drivers more than others; the issue is about that, rather than all vehicle citations. Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft stated Councilmembers Daysog and Herrera Spencer raise good points; this is not the end of the discussion; she wants to see a robust discussion of UBI come back; the two year study in Stockton just came back with impressive results; valid concerns raised about fees and fines impacting someone with lower economic means can be part of the discussion. Councilmember Knox White stated that he would be happy to add a review of fines and penalties to the motion. Councilmember Daysog seconded the amended motion, which carried by the following roll call vote: Councilmembers Daysog: Aye; Herrera Spencer: Aye; Knox White: Aye; Vella: Aye; and Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft: Aye. Ayes: 5. Councilmember Herrera Spencer questioned whether any of the motions address use of cameras; stated, if not, she would move approval of staff looking into the matter and providing an update on the status. Councilmember Daysog seconded the motion. Under discussion, Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft requested the motion be repeated. Councilmember Herrera Spencer stated the motion is to receive an update from staff on the status of the License Plate Readers (LPRs) and cameras. Councilmember Knox White inquired whether the request is just about the status and whether it could be off agenda. Councilmember Herrera Spencer stated that she would like to have a conversation about whether or not the Council wants cameras; there have been multiple meetings. Vice Mayor Vella questioned whether the matter is properly agendized. Mayor Ezzy Ashcraft stated the report does address cameras as alternatives means of enforcement relying more on technology. Vice Mayor Vella stated it was part of the earlier motion, which was generalized; inquired why a specific motion is needed on the status; stated it was part of the first motion; questioned what Council is trying to achieve with the motion.
