Somersett’s Surveillance Mirage: High-Tech Cameras, Low-Tech Accountability
Michael Leonard - Mike's Reno Report - first pulled back the curtain on Somersett’s use of Automated License Plate Readers (ALPRs) — a high-tech surveillance system that sounds impressive on paper. These cameras scan and store every license plate that rolls into the neighborhood, supposedly adding a layer of security for residents. But when real-world danger showed up, the machines stayed silent, and so did the people in charge.
On July 28, Our Town Reno reported a troubling incident: a group of youths harassing young women outside a public bathroom at Somersett East Park. It's a serious allegation — one that should have prompted immediate concern from the Somersett Owners Association. But their only suggestion? "Call the police." That’s it.
