City Wide Camera System Approved By Platteville Common Council

The Platteville Common Council has approved paying up to $140,000 to jumpstart the installation and update of a citywide camera system. Council members awarded the contract to TC Networks. The project will be funded by $100,000 in American Rescue Plan Act funds, with the remaining $40,000 carrying over from the 2021 Capitol Improvement Plan. TC Networks was one of two companies who bid on the project. City staff recommended TC Networks because it is headquartered in Platteville and submitted a more city-specific plan in its application. A report says that phase one upgrades should begin late this year or early next year.
