From the transcript
So this to me is the most important amendment, and without it, I don't think I can support the S version. I moved to the S version because my sense is that is the platform that some of my colleagues prefer to work off of, and the mayor has stated that it's her preference as well. Um, I do want to thank the municipal attorney for working with myself and my co-sponsors on the original version, members McCormick and Scout. Um, I think we almost got to a place of agreement where we felt like we could endorse this S version, but there were a couple sticking points, and this to me is really the one that I need to, to be able to see move forward in order for me to support the underlying item. And that is the requirement that no, no municipal agency may share surveillance data for a known purpose that would be prohibited if undertaken directly by the municipality under this chapter, unless required by law, judicial warrant, or court order.
