The trustees were set to vote on a vendor for the stop-arm cameras at their meeting.
Before the meeting, the superintendent removed the item from the agenda. The school board voted on the revised agenda, which was approved.
The cameras would automatically snap photos of drivers who illegally pass buses while children are crossing.
The ACLU has raised concerns over the program being treated more like a “revenue generator” than a safety measure.
CCSD Superintendent Jhone Ebert released a statement about the agenda item. She says several “complex operational and administrative questions” emerged.

“I am withdrawing this item from tonight’s agenda,” Ebert said. “As we have continued to evaluate the implementation models and the experiences of other jurisdictions across the country, several complex operational and administrative questions have emerged.”
She also says the legislation provides school districts with a tool to protect students as they travel to and from school.
“I want to begin by expressing my sincere gratitude to our state legislators for the passage of AB 527. It takes our entire community working together to ensure the safety of our students on our roads,” she said. “The Clark County School District has completed the initial phases of exploring this program, including a thorough procurement process for a vendor to operate the stop-arm cameras.”
“I want to thank our team for conducting a fair process that prioritized CCSD’s high standards for procurement,” she said.
