Trial-based CCTV cameras to increase public safety

Published on 18 June 2019

The Council is installing and trialling surveillance cameras in key public areas this month in a collaborative project with Victoria Police.

Mayor, Cr Scott Upston, said that the Council takes great pride in the safety of Benalla Rural City.

“CCTV cameras act as a deterrent for offenders, to improve community safety, security and confidence in public places,” said Cr Upston.

The technology being trialled has the capacity to be monitored remotely.
