OC Police Commission hoping to expand City Watch Surveillance Program by this summer

OCEAN CITY, Md.- The Ocean City Police Commission is looking to expand their City Watch Surveillance Program.

The Police Department said the City Watch Program is something they utilize everyday and is especially important during the summer.

We are told recently the commission expressed how they want to install more cameras along Baltimore Avenue, which they consider a highly traveled spot.

They also say they are looking at revamping the cameras at the entrance and exit points of Ocean City.

“With the expansion of the community watch program that’s another tool for officers to use in an investigation, know exactly where they are needed, it brings together the technology our dispatchers and our officers,” Ashley Miller, Deputy Communications Manger OC Police Dept, said.

We are told they are hoping to have these cameras in place before the upcoming summer.

Miller added that the current expansion is in their budget and they’ve received grants for the cameras.
