4 issues in general with medium priority
License plate reader data sharing with Pinellas Sheriff
The city would join an interagency agreement letting police share license plate reader data extracts with the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office.
Legal Appeal
Coconut Creek is refusing to back down, officially appealing a judge's decision that tossed out their lawsuit against the Florida Turnpike widening project. If you live nearby, this means the city is keeping the legal battle alive to challenge the massive highway expansion.
Surveillance Cameras
Coconut Creek is openly defying the state's orders and keeping all ten of its automated license-plate reading cameras turned on. Instead of complying with the Florida Department of Transportation's takedown demand, local police are doubling down on using the tech.
Lawsuit Dismissal
A judge just threw out Coconut Creek's lawsuit to stop massive expansions on the Florida Turnpike and Sawgrass Expressway, meaning those huge highway projects are officially moving forward.
