It appears, at least if you believe ACS, that Chapel Hill, NC is the first community to reject RLCs. Here's a couple links about it: http://www.heraldsun.com/orange/10-441371.html http://newsobserver.com/news/story/3196101p-2873382c.html These stories gloss over several of the substantive reasons the council had for rejecting the system, including the mechanization of law, the way the systems calibration was set to create unnecessary violations, the questionable claims of the vendor, etc. _______________________________________________ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/)
