Welcome to the Community Camera Program in Racine
This program aims to make your home and our community safer.
The City of Racine’s Security Camera Pilot Program
The City of Racine recently launched a pilot program that provides a reimbursement for homeowners and businesses to purchase a NEW security camera.
This is a Pilot program and will only be available so long as funding lasts.
Requirements for Reimbursement
First, in order to qualify you must have completed and submitted the application form, your home/property must be free of building code violations or tax liens, and must be located within the city limits.
Do not purchase a camera system prior to application approval. Reimbursement will not be authorized under such circumstances.
Further requirements are listed on the program agreement forms.
Police will not have access to video footage and permission must be granted for access during an investigation.
