License plate-reading cameras could soon go online in another Rhode Island city.
The Warwick City Council on Monday unanimously voted to send a proposed ordinance to the public safety committee after a discussion that lasted several hours.
The full council is set to vote in September.
License-plate cameras have been turned on in a half-dozen other communities.
Police say they're a great crime-fighting tool, but the ACLU has raised concerns about erosion of civil liberties.
The full city council is expected to vote on the measure September 19th.
