Lindsay Downtown BIA CCTV Camera Survey

The Lindsay Downtown Business Improvement Association (LDBIA) in partnership with the Kawartha Lakes Police Service have successfully procured a grant to implement a closed-circuit television camera (CCTV) network in the downtown Lindsay core. The purpose of the grant is to enhance public safety in Lindsay’s downtown core with the installation of CCTV cameras.

The cameras will not be actively monitored by the Kawartha Lakes Police Services or the LDBIA but they will be reviewed on an as requested, as needed basis. The LDBIA will be entrusted as the owner of the equipment, they'll be responsible for maintenance of the network and they'll facilitate any requests for information in accordance with all applicable laws of governance.

The grant specifies an install completion date of Spring 2024. Among many of the steps needed for the initiative to be successful is a public consultation period with the community. In that spirit, please complete the survey at:
