San Ramon Police Department badge

CITIZEN'S VIEW is the San Ramon Police Department's newest crime prevention and investigative program, which partners with residents and businesses to help solve crime and keep our community safe.

Registering your business or personal surveillance camera may help deter crime and assist the Police Department in its overall crime prevention strategy. Help the San Ramon Police protect your community by registering your surveillance cameras with the CITIZEN'S VIEW program. Registration is fast and simple.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The San Ramon Police Department is committed to our partnership with residents and business owners. Many business owners and residents currently operate surveillance systems at their businesses and/or homes. As crimes occur nearby, they are not always aware that their system may have captured information that could help solve the crime, thus keeping our community safer. In turn, the police are also not always aware who may have this potentially vital information.

The Police Department is asking residents and businesses across the city to register their privately owned surveillance camera systems. As the Police Department responds to criminal incidents in our community, they may be able to use the information or footage gathered from the security cameras to assist in the apprehension and prosecution of the criminals involved.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF REGISTERING YOUR CAMERA?

CITIZEN'S VIEW will help the police department to quickly identify nearby cameras that may have captured criminal activity. After registering your camera, you would only be contacted by the San Ramon Police Department if there is a criminal incident in the vicinity of your security camera. Police personnel, if necessary, may request to view your camera footage in order to assist in the investigation. Make San Ramon an undesirable place for criminals to commit crime and help keep your entire community safe!
