CCTV CAMERAS COMING TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD - SAFETY COMMITTEE ANNOUCEMENT

From the CNNC Safety Committee

Currently we have one remaining CNNC camera left to install, which we can control the positioning off.

As per the Mayor’s commitment, installation of the CCTV Cameras that will be connected to Zone 1, will hopefully begin Mid to Late May.

We will communicate with the Police as to the positioning of these cameras and if anyone would like to nominate a location for a camera then please contact us with your suggestions.

In light of the recent break-in’s to cars on Monterey and vandalism there seems no better time for these cameras to arrive.

Our next meeting is Wednesday, 22nd April, 7pm at Chris D’Addario’s house, 608 Sampsonia Way.
