Security Camera Registration Program
Assist law enforcement in solving crimes using your security cameras.
The primary aim of the Security Camera Registration Program is to discourage criminal activity and bolster public safety by fostering cooperation between The Dalles Police and our community. You can assist the City of The Dalles Police Department by registering your home or business surveillance system. This registration aids the police in promptly identifying potential helpful camera footage when there is criminal activity in your vicinity.
- This program is voluntary and there is no cost associated with registration.
- Registering your information does not provide direct access to your security system camera.
- You will only be contacted by the City of The Dalles Police Department in the future if there is a criminal incident in the vicinity of your security camera.
- The Police Department may request a copy of any video captured by your camera to assist in the investigation of a crime.
