Overview
The situation
Our District communities have good support networks – many people know their neighbours and look out for one another but crime and anti-social behaviour is a concern, particularly in rural areas. Some people feel isolated and possibly vulnerable to crime or anti-social behaviour and this affects the wellbeing of those communities. They have requested CCTV as a way of improving safety.
The proposal
We are proposing to include additional budget of $50,000 per annum for the next three years for new CCTV cameras.

Project details
The proposed funding will be used if there are requests from the community or through community boards for new cameras, where those requests meet agreed policy criteria.
