I have wonderful news to share that enhances the safety of our entire Daniel Island community! Last week, brand new safety cameras were installed at all three Daniel Island on/off points. These cameras not only provide law enforcement the potential to solve crimes faster but also serve as a crime deterrent.
These cameras were made possible through an agreement between DITA (Daniel Island Town Association) and the City of Charleston Police Department (CPD) and received unanimous support from City Council. DITA paid for all costs associated with the installation and lease of the cameras for two years. The City then agrees to payment of the lease thereafter, provided CPD is satisfied with the service and the cameras are providing useful information.
This is an excellent example of a public/private partnership, and I cannot thank DITA enough for their incredible contribution to our community’s safety.
