Homeland Security Grants for Chicago
From the Daily Herald | Cook County:
Illinois received 215 grants totaling $6.78 million for police and sheriff’s departments across the state through the Illinois Terrorism Task Force. The article includes several examples of how the money is being used to upgrade surveillance systems.
For example, the Buffalo Grove Police Department received $11,430, which will be used to update camera systems. Last year, the department spent the $50,000 grant on a portable surveillance system. Part of reasoning behind this system was for the protection of the community’s many synagogues.
Des Plaines is also using its grant to upgrade its security camera system.
