CONSIDERATIONS:
On October 28 2013, the City Commission approved a Homeland Security Federal
Domestic Assistance Grant in the amount of $84,171 to be utilized for the purchase and
implementation of infrastructure that will allow for "target hardening" utilizing video
cameras on our water treatment plants, starting with Water Plant One on Northern Way.
Using these approved grant monies to purchase and install infrastructure and cameras at the
City of Winter Springs Water Plant One will assist the Police Department with live
notification and recording of an intrusion and will help resolve cases involving illegal entry
to city buildings, as well as damage to city assets. The system will have a monitor in
the department's Communications Center and the system will be alarmed to alert
the operators that there is an intrusion on City of Winter Springs property.
