What the audit said
BCA notification of fixed camera locations was not submitted within the statutory 10-day window after the ALPR system went live (May 2024); the city produced evidence of the original notification and the lapse was since resolved. The audit enumerates seven statutory requirements -- Data Collection; Classification; Use Restrictions / Destruction of Data Required / Sharing Among Law Enforcement Agencies / Log of Use Required / Biennial Audit / Authorization to Access Data / Notification to Bureau of Criminal Apprehension -- and records no discrepancy against the other six.
Recorded findings appear in green because a finding is evidence the auditor actually examined the program. A report with nothing at all appears in red.
Every agency operating an ALPR in Minnesota must arrange an independent audit every two years under Minn. Stat. § 13.824, subd. 6.
