The self-described “Danish Capital of America” is revisiting its decision to surveil 5,000 residents and millions of visitors with AI-enabled cameras. Solvang City Council had previously approved a three-year contract with XIT Solutions in July 2025 to install Verkada cameras at various sites, including Solvang City Hall & City Hall Annex, Solvang Park (outside the public restrooms), First Street, Alisal Road at Oak Street and Alisal Road at Copenhagen Drive. However, officials will now re-examine their AI camera policy following growing public concern over surveillance systems like Verkada and Flock Safety.
