2 Skagit County cities to enhance crime-solving tech with new vehicle recognition cameras

Описание: More cameras will soon be installed in two cities in Skagit County to help police identify vehicles involved in criminal activities.

Last month, Mount Vernon and Sedro-Woolley both approved agreements with Flock Safety to install the technology and give police better ways to read license plates and potentially solve more crimes.

Sedro-Woolley will spend $44,550 to install seven cameras and will be seeking grants to cover some of those costs. Mount Vernon will purchase six cameras using $38,550 from its allotment of American Rescue Plan Act funds.
