City Council Security Review and Proposed Upgrades @ Public Safety

Council Security Discussed @ Public Safety - Sept. 20, 2010 - Richmond, Virginia City Council from Silver Persinger.

Bobby Stith [Security Supervisor, Dept. of Public Works] discussed Council's current security procedures and recommended security enhancements for Council's work areas including installing more cameras at City Hall.

At minute 35:00, the committee discussed Delegate Loupassi's bill which proposes to seize an individual's car immediately after running from the police. I spoke in opposition to the bill, House Bill 1403, at the beginning of the meeting. Committee discussion devolved to nonsensical comments about County police not being trained to drive in Richmond's urban environment, rather than directly commenting on the proposed law.
