About this Program

This initiative provides incentives for businesses/non-profits in the Essex Commercial Revitalization District and the Essex Sustainable Community boundaries to install security camera systems on the exterior of their property in an effort to deter crime and assist law enforcement with investigations. This program is funded by a Commercial Revitalization Action Grant through Baltimore County’s Department of Planning and a Community Safety Works Grant through Maryland's Department of Housing and Community Development.

Businesses/Non-profits leasing space in commercial/retail properties located in the Essex Commercial Revitalization District or Essex Sustainable Community boundaries.

Requirements

All participants must submit an application to and receive approval from the Security Camera Committee before installation occurs.
All participants are required to sign an Agreement providing law enforcement with access to their video footage.
All security camera systems shall operate 24 hours per day/7 days per week.
Video footage must be retained for a minimum of 30 days.
Applicants who are tenants (as opposed to property owners) must provide a Letter of Permission from the property owner approving the installation of the security camera system.

Conformance

All applicants acknowledge that they will not use the security camera for any unlawful or harassing purposes.
All applicants must comply with applicable Baltimore County building and electrical code requirements.
