Video System Could Save Library Money
- Share via
A proposal to install a video security system at the San Juan Capistrano Regional Library could save the county branch more than $12,000 a year by eliminating the need for a security guard, according to a municipal report.
The City Council on Tuesday will consider using part of a state law-enforcement grant and about $3,000 from the general fund to buy a $13,000 security system. The city will ask the county to pick up the annual $1,300 maintenance tab for the 24-hour system.
A county-hired security guard who now patrols the library costs $13,500 a year.
The council meeting begins at 7 p.m. at 32400 Paseo Adelanto. Information: (714) 493-1171.
