SLEEPY EYE Police Chief Matt Andres discussed the virtues of surveillance cameras at the Sleepy Eye City Council Tuesday.
“I think this is the future of law enforcement,” said Andres. “We tested them at Sportsmans Park because there is Wi-Fi there. They have 30 days of video storage and learned the cameras were good. We need them downtown, around the schools, and baseball park.”
Andres said one company offered to sell two cameras with a five-year license, and cloud-based data storage for $3,597.
“I’m not asking to buy them now. I’ll put together a plan for the finance committee,” Andres said. “These as the best cameras I’ve seen. They’re really impressive. They even have license (plate) reading technology.”
