We, the residents of Evanston, want more information and discussion before Evanston city council votes on whether to apply for the Homeland Security Grant to install a network of surveillance cameras.

The Issue

  •  

    If the cameras are really about student safety, there should be credible data that clearly supports the need. If this is about youth homicides, protecting senior citizens, or keeping an eye on police officers, let’s respect the importance of those issues and discuss them individually with care and consideration. But mixing every point together is confusing and it unnecessarily polarizes our community.
