Dutchess County Flock cameras deactivated after public outcry

Dutchess County Flock cameras deactivated after public outcry

More than 100 Dutchess County residents crowded into the community meeting room at Pleasant Valley Town Hall on Wednesday, Sept. 23, to voice their concerns over the county’s use of license plate reading surveillance cameras.

Flock cameras in Dutchess County will no longer capture license plates, and the cameras will come down in the next 30 days.
The news comes after Dutchess County District Attorney Anthony Parisi and Sheriff Kirk Imperati announced Thursday that they are withdrawing their support for the county’s continued use of Flock Safety license plate readers. The law enforcement officials made the announcement less than 48 hours after a packed public forum in Pleasant Valley, where residents overwhelmingly voiced their objections to the cameras.

“We listened to the questions that were asked and the concerns that were raised,” Parisi said in a statement. “After those discussions, we agreed that the appropriate response is to listen to our community and change course.”

MILLERTON — Nearly three weeks after a motorcycle crash cost him his left leg, Paris Perkins remains at Westchester Medical Center, facing more surgery and a long rehabilitation. But his father says the 22-year-old Millerton resident is already talking about running again.

Perkins was injured Sept. 10 in a collision with a delivery truck at Route 44 and Kennels Road in the Town of Washington. The collision threw Perkins into a roadside utility pole. His left leg was amputated below the knee, and he suffered fractures to his right leg and pelvis.

State bill aims to curtail Flock cameras

State bill aims to curtail Flock cameras

As county-operated license plate readers are set to come down across northeast Dutchess County, a state senator has introduced legislation to put the first statewide limits on how the technology is used.

State Sen. Michelle Hinchey announced the bill last Tuesday, Sept. 22. It would regulate automatic license plate readers, or ALPRs, including those made by Flock Safety, the company behind the cameras that have been installed in Millerton, Amenia, Pine Plains and Milan.
