Agency records · KY

Berea Police Department

License plate reader records for Berea. Each fact keeps its source and checked date.

Written rules describe policy, not proof that every search follows it. Agency-reported camera totals have a different scope from community-mapped county points.

What the public record establishes

SOP 3.17 took effect May 7, 2024 and was revised June 16, 2026. This written policy does not establish a current inventory or actual compliance.

Personal use, harassment, protected-characteristic targeting and infringement of First Amendment rights are prohibited. Nonpublic plates require a court order. Confirmation that a plate remains wanted has an exigent-circumstances exception; visual plate matching is also required.

Access and oversight

Department-approved training and individual logins are required. Browsing needs a documented reason; inquiries also require a case or incident number and/or reason.
