Organizers plan a rally Saturday at 6:30 p.m. on the corner of South University Drive and Nova Drive in Davie to demand that the Davie Town Council and its Community Redevelopment Agency board dismantle the town’s automated license plate reader (ALPR) program. The program, which uses pole‑mounted cameras supplied by Flock Safety, has been in place without a separate vote of the town council, according to the groups. Axios reported that more than 800 ALPR cameras operate in Broward County, and Flock Safety says it serves over 120,000 locations nationally. The Florida Digital Rights Association, 50501, Occupy Florida and Hope & Action, together with local residents, are calling for a public report on data access, retention limits, and an independent audit of privacy and civil liberties impacts. They also request that future spending on surveillance technology be subject to public hearings rather than included in consent agenda items. A press release from the organizers described the system as mosaic surveillance that raises Fourth Amendment concerns, and said taxpayers are being asked to fund a tool that monitors individuals. Police in Fort Lauderdale discovered two damaged cameras in Croissant Park last month, and several other South Florida agencies, including the Broward Sheriff’s Office and municipal police departments in Fort Lauderdale, Pembroke Pines, Margate, Coconut Creek and Boynton Beach, are using the technology, though many have declined to disclose the number or locations. Governor Ron DeSantis said at Florida International University that the devices have gotten out of control and urged legislative action, citing New Hampshire’s ban on roadside installations as a possible model. Republican candidate Byron Donalds has proposed working with law‑enforcement leaders to set limits, while Democrat David Jolly argues that police should require a warrant before accessing ALPR data. Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri is investigating Flock’s data collection, storage and sharing practices, and the company announced new guardrails on August 13 that shorten default data retention and add misuse detection mechanisms; activists say these steps are insufficient. The outcome of the rally and any subsequent council action remain undecided, and it is unclear whether the town will adopt the proposed transparency measures or pause the program entirely.
