The increased surveillance in 'problem areas' will be made possible through $500,000 in federal funds.
Camden Mayor Vic Carstarphen said debris illegally dumped in the city has included tires and electronics.
“Illegal dumping is unsightly, unhealthy, an environmental challenge and also leads to blight and compounds public safety concerns within Camden’s neighborhoods,” Carstarphen said in a statement. City officials said they have also used ground patrols and community engagement to address the problem. Keashen said they also hope stiffer fines will help. In January — under a new bill introduced by Assemblyman Bill Moen — New Jersey upped fines for illegal dumping to between $5,000 and $20,000 depending on offense.
“These cameras will give our police department another tool in the fight against illegal dumping, hopefully leading to more apprehension and punishment of these violators,” said Camden County Commissioner Jon Young. Young joined Congressman Donald Norcross , Camden Police Chief Gabe Rodriguez and Carstarphen on Wednesday morning to deliver the $500,000 federal allocation to the Camden County Police Department. The money is part of a larger $4.
