The Pleasanton City Council unanimously agreed last week to support the Pleasanton Police Department s interest in installing situational awareness cameras at city intersections.
Pleasanton Police Chief David Swing told the City Council last Tuesday that one of the biggest challenges continues to be a staffing shortage, which is affecting morale and non-emergency response times.
Members from the Pleasanton Police Department updated the City Council with its biannual report last week on topics including school police officers, "stop data" collection and the challenge of hiring new personnel.
