CCTV cameras at road intersections

Andrew Riddell made this Official Information request to Far North District Council

Far North District Council did not have the information requested.

From: Andrew Riddell

Dear Far North District Council,

In the last few months several CCTV cameras have been installed along State Highway 11, including at the intersections with English Bay Road/Franklin Street, Oramahoe Road, and Nautical Drive and at the intersection of Aucks Road, and at the intersection of the Russell-Whakapara Road.

Are these Far North District Council's cameras?

If not, what organisation is responsible for these cameras?

If these are Far North District Council's cameras I request the following information:
- all reports, assessments and communications leading to the installation of the cameras,
- a description of the information that is recorded on these cameras, including whether this includes a number plate recognition system,
- the privacy report for these cameras, including how and where data is stored and kept secure, and how long it is kept for before being deleted,
- the locations of all such cameras along State Highway 11 and on the Russell Peninsula.

If these are cameras installed by another organisation I request the following information:

- a copy of the application to Far North District Council for permission to erect and operate the cameras along the State Highway,
- all reports, assessments and communications by Far North District Council related to the processing of the application to install cameras at selected locations along State Highway 11 and on the Russell Peninsula.

Yours faithfully,

Andrew Riddell

Interesting - new cctv cameras installed on road reserves and neither authority controlling those road reserves (NZTA, FNDC) knows nothing about it.
