SALTILLO ⢠A recent surge in vandalism and theft has prompted the city of Saltillo to look at upgrading and expanding the security cameras at two large parks.
The city recently sent out requests for bids to install new cameras with higher resolution and infrared capabilities at Saltillo City Park and the W.K. Webb Sportsplex. Officials hope to have the new cameras installed by this summer.
The city first installed cameras at the two complexes in the spring of 2017 following a spree of vandalism in park bathrooms and the destruction of property like picnic tables.
But the limited resolution of those cameras has been troublesome as a new wave of vandalism and theft hit the city, prompting city leaders to consider upgrading their security tech.
