Planning

The City of Madison is launching a one-year police body-worn cameras pilot program. The pilot will determine whether the city is able to successfully use the body cameras as a tool to hold officers and civilians accountable and protect innocent citizens from wrongful convictions. The council-approved resolution incorporates requirements of the city's existing surveillance technology ordinance into the pilot program's design.
