The Town of Lakeville Park Commission approved a revised security camera plan for Ted Williams that replaces a proposed 360-degree camera with four stationary cameras, including one focused solely on the playground.

Commissioners and staff told the commission that supplier CC Tuck recommended starting with stationary cameras to evaluate coverage needs. Staff removed the 360-degree option and mounted the cameras on the side of the building instead of the roof; the package remains within budget and will be funded by ARPA monies.

The installer asked about invoicing; staff said payments should be coordinated through the town’s finance office and that the parks office would provide the correct ARPA accounting references. Commissioners also asked that tree trimming and trenching for wiring be scheduled concurrently to reduce site visits.

Why it matters: The change prioritizes targeted coverage for high-use playground areas while keeping project costs within the approved ARPA allocation. Staff said installation will start soon and include coordination for trenching and tree trimming.
