CCTV camera lined up for popular public park -- all the latest Mansfield plans
The installation of a CCTV surveillance camera at a popular public park features in the latest batch of planning applications received by Mansfield District Council.
Manor Park, on Kingsley Avenue in Mansfield Woodhouse, is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and is well used by dog-walkers.
It includes football pitches, bowling greens, a children’s play area and a sports pavilion with changing rooms.
The park is run by the council, which has submitted a proposal for a black, eight-metre high CCTV column “for the purposes of public-space surveillance”.
The application, which has been pieced together by Tony Utting, the council’s CCTV and commercial manager, says the camera would be positioned near the sports pavilion.
No detailed reasons have been given for its installation but the application refers to “community safety” and “data control”.
The council’s planning officers are now considering the proposal and are hoping to make a decision or recommendation before their deadline date of Monday, May 18.
