Why your views matter

The introduction of Public Wi-Fi in Crieff means it is now possible to connect CCTV cameras to the Public Space CCTV network and funds were identified in the 2021-22 budget to establish a project to deliver this.

Therefore, we invite members of the public, organisations, business and visitors to complete a short survey about the proposal to introduce Public Space CCTV in Crieff.
