Community safety is everyone's responsibility. Council is developing an approach to community safety and crime prevention to provide a framework for this important issue.
CCTV in Randwick City
CCTV in Randwick City is part of Council's crime prevention initiative for a safe environment in Randwick City for residents and visitors.
The aim of CCTV in Randwick City is to:
- reduce crime levels and the fear of crime by deterring potential offenders
- assist in detecting and prosecuting offenders, and
- help secure a safer environment for residents and visitors.
Randwick City Council has installed a number of Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) at Goldstein Reserve, Coogee.
In order to achieve a balance between crime prevention interests and rights and privacy of individuals, Council has developed a draft Code of Practice for the use of CCTV at Coogee and other future sites in the City.
You can download the Code of Practice (pdf 181 kb).
