The City of Chula Vista invites residents to participate in one of two community meetings with the Technology and Privacy Advisory Task Force to share ways your privacy can be better protected.
Residents are encouraged to join in the open conversation to help create better policies to respect resident privacy, protect public safety, and build a stronger community. The task force wants residents to share ideas about drones, traffic signal cameras, public Wi-Fi, and other technologies the City uses.
The first meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 27, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the South Chula Vista Branch Library, 389 Orange Avenue. On Thursday, July 28, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., another opportunity for residents to share their thoughts will be held at the Otay Ranch Branch Library, 2015 Birch Road.
These meetings will feature small group discussions on potential policy recommendations, including the possibility of establishing a permanent privacy advisory commission, creating new limits on data collection and data retention, and requiring a special review of any City technology project that could have an impact on privacy.
Spanish translation will be available. RSVP is recommended at either meeting, but not required: https://www.chulavistaca.gov/businesses/smart-city/projects/privacytaskforce/rsvp.
