핵심 요약

• Mandurah council has voted to install number plate recognition cameras and extra CCTV, with the plate recognition vote passing 8-3. The council agreed at its September 22 meeting to shift about $100,000 in its budget toward the two projects, each expected to cost about $72,000.
• A state grant of $40,686 will help fund the plate recognition cameras, which will go on Mandurah Bridge and Mandurah Terrace. Opponents argued that the cameras were a state government responsibility.
• Supporters said the technology helps respond to antisocial behaviour and break-ins at Lakelands Park.
