Camera funding announced

Member for Robertson Ms Belinda Neal has confirmed that a $680,000 grant for the installation of closed circuit TV on the Peninsula had been delivered.

"This community safety project was one of my major commitments to the electors of Robertson during the 2007 Federal Election campaign," Ms Neal said.

"I am very happy that this project has been provided to the residents, shoppers and business owners on the Peninsula.

"This major funding boost will allow Gosford Council to install up to 27 cameras around Umina, Woy Woy and Ettalong beaches in locations that have been identified as being at high risk for anti-social behaviour.

"Projects designed and developed locally can help to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour and I'm pleased to be able to announce this funding boost for Gosford."
