The goal

This petition is aimed at getting the support of the DOC (Department of Conservation), and the Tasman council, in order to support, allowing the installation of, and the funding of the acquisition of CCTV cameras to secure the place and get the thieves caught by recording number plates of every coming and going car.

The goal would be to buy 1 - 3 wildlife autonomous cameras for each car park i.e Flora and Mount Robert to start with, that feature motion detection and night vision, along with a long battery life of several months, or similar autonomous and outdoor fit camera.

- 1 camera at the entrance of the carpark in order to record number plates- 2 cameras at 2 different corners in order to record activity and the actual theft actions.

Cameras similar to this, night vision, triggered by motion detection, battery life close to 12months, hard to see for the thief in a hurry.
