Redwood City’s Top Cop To Address Body Cam Policy

REDWOOD CITY, CA — Redwood City Police Chief Dan Mulholland next week will address questions from the public about his department’s new policy for body worn cameras in a virtual meeting.

The meeting will be held on Zoom Feb. 10 from 5 to 6 p.m.

A brief presentation from the city’s top cop will be followed by his answering questions from the public submitted in advance via email or through the written Q&A feature of Zoom during the meeting.

“Obtaining and using the cameras has been a multi-year goal, prompted in part by a 2016 Grand Jury report recommending that all cities use them,” the city said in a statement.

“The technology is expensive but Redwood City was fortunate to receive federal grant funds for a portion of the cost. The policy was developed based on requirements tied to the federal grant, as well as local, state and federal regulations and best practices.”

To submit questions in advance email: bodyworncamera@redwoodcity.org
