Townsville Seeks CCTV Supplier For 36 Months.
Townsville Seeks CCTV Supplier – Townsville is seeking a preferred supplier for video surveillance solutions for 36 months.
Townsville’s CCTV security and surveillance network will be given an upgrade after Townsville City Council allocated $A5.3 million in the 2022/23 Budget and Operational Plan to improve the system of nearly 500 cameras.
The spend is part of Council’s more than $33 million investment into key safety initiatives across the city to further improve safety for visitors and residents.
Mayor Jenny Hill said while dealing with crime was not in the remit of local government, Council was committed to doing its part to protect its assets and ensure community spaces remained safe for locals and visitors to enjoy.
“Council’s more than $5 million investment into the CCTV network will go towards operations, upgrades, and renewals,” Cr Hill said.
“These cameras are a critical support mechanism local government can provide community and act as both a deterrent for crime and a resource to support local authorities to respond to incidents in the city.”
Council has a memorandum of understanding with Queensland Police for the provision of footage through its CCTV network which captures 24-hour surveillance vision at hundreds of sites throughout the city.
“In the past 12 months Council has received 598 requests for CCTV footage, making this an essential investment for the safety of our community,” Cr Hill said.
