Tweed Shire Council are set to receive $270,000 to deliver five mobile CCTV cameras, with funding from the NSW government as part of the $37.2 million Local Small Commitments Allocation Program.
The government says the Local Small Commitments Allocation Program will enhance local communities and provide $400,000 in benefits to people in each of the 93 NSW electorates.
The program consists of over 600 small community projects, ranging from capital works, services and programs, events, supplies and equipment, charitable donations, and playground and park upgrades.
Emily Suvaal MLC, Labor Spokesperson for Tweed said, ‘The funds delivered as part of the Local Small Commitments Allocation program will purchase two mobile and three semi-mobile CCTV cameras. These cameras will be used for a range of uses including crime prevention, preventing anti-social behaviour, protection of the environment and asset security.
‘The NSW government has committed funds to the program which will help small local projects and programs that strengthen communties and provide improvements at a local level,’ she said.
‘This is a fantastic outcome for Tweed Shire Council and the people of Tweed, said Ms Suvaal.
