The Crisafulli Government is making Queensland safer and delivering on a key election commitment, with a $250,000 investment in CCTV infrastructure and licence plate recognition technology for the City of Moreton Bay.
It's just one of the ways the Crisafulli Government is restoring safety where you live after a decade of decline under Labor where stolen cars jumped more than 101 per cent.
The investment will deliver critical CCTV upgrades and other crime prevention measures and back councils to respond to local safety needs.
Minister for Local Government and Water Ann Leahy said the funding reflected the Crisafulli Government's commitment to making Queensland safer and supporting local councils in implementing initiatives that meet the safety needs of their communities.
"This project will significantly enhance community safety for Queenslanders and delivers on a key election commitment by the Crisafulli Government," Minister Leahy said.
"We are investing in our Moreton Bay community to ensure everyone feels safe in their neighbourhoods." City of Moreton Bay Mayor Peter Flannery welcomed the election commitment funding for CCTV cameras. "Every person in our community deserves to feel safe, and by expanding our CCTV network, we're taking a proactive approach to not just solving crimes but preventing them.
Work on the improvements is due to start soon, with projects expected to be completed by the end of June.
