LA council veto falls one vote short; Axon streetlight camera pilot proceeds

Approved the pilot in September; authority now contested

The Los Angeles City Council fell one vote short on October 27 of blocking a three-month pilot that will put 30 Axon license plate readers on streetlights in the west San Fernando Valley. The 9-6 vote needed 10 to send the agreement back to the Board of Police Commissioners, so the cameras move ahead in Council District 3.
