General security John Lupino was in attendance to answer questions about security system for town hall and highway garage.
The office will have a camera and two portable panic buttons which work up to a quarter of a mile away, two in the rec. hall. There will be cameras outside one facing the road, one to cover the walk, one to cover ball field, one to cover parking lot. These can be recorded up to 30 days, but the more cameras the less record time. They are motion activated so if there’s no movement they aren’t recording.
Highway department there will be a camera in the office, one on the back side, one in the fuel room, one in the truck bay, and one in the storage room.
The cost of this is $13,747.00 and $36.00 monthly monitoring fee.
