Shrewsburyâs police officers could soon be equipped with body cameras. The cityâs police vehicle cameras would also be updated and fire department vehicles would get cameras too, if the Shrewsbury Board of Aldermen gives approval at its next meeting.
During a discussion of the issue at the June 8 board meeting, Shrewsbury Police Chief Lisa Vargas and Fire Chief Chris Amenn said plans are to contract with Georgia-based Utility Associates, Inc. for body cameras, including 20 police body cameras, accessories, and uniforms or uniform retrofits at a cost of roughly $182,000 for the police department and roughly $62,000 for the fire department equipment.
