Meadow House Gets New Video Security System

At a residents meeting at Meadow House (4649 Paul St.) on March 21st, Jason Dawkins (Business Services/Special Projects/Zoning specialist for group meetingCouncilwoman for Maria Quiñones Sánchez) explained the features of the newly installed video surveillance system.

The entire perimeter of the building can now be monitored from the office at the entrance to the building which provides residents going in and out of the building an extra measure of security.  In addition, the system can be accessed by the police department should the need arise.

Residents were pleased with the installation of the system .  The grant for the system was made possible through the efforts of the Latino Partnership Initiative.
