lony warrant, or when a car is related to or involved in a forcible felony.

Grasse was approached by the ACLU of Illinois after Mount Prospect police revealed last year that Texas law enforcement accessed their data without their knowledge. The ACLU first raised privacy concerns back in 2017, but the technology has rapidly evolved since then.

 The technology is so sophisticated now that you can not just see a license plate, but you can see a bumper sticker. You can see whether or not there's somebody else who's in the car. You can do searches with make and model or 'I'm looking for somebody in a blue jacket driving a car that's brown with a dent,'  said Khadine Bennett, the director of advocacy and intergovernmental affairs for the ACLU of Illinois.

Under the bill, any city that wants to bring these cameras in would also be required to invite public input at public meetings and report back how often the cameras led to arrests and convictions.

Grasse also wants to limit how long police can keep the data. The current bill language would cap the data retention at three days, but Grasse said she is open to amending that number based on her conversations with law enforcement and other stakeholders.

Oakbrook Center's website says data is kept for 30 days unless otherwise required by law.
