Department of Natural Resources moves to expand body-worn cameras for CPW officers
Summary
JBC members said the Department of Natural Resources will receive cash funds and a partial FTE to convert a Colorado Parks and Wildlife body-worn camera pilot into a full contract following a successful trial.
Representative Sirota told the caucus the Department of Natural Resources requested funds to move a Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) body-worn camera pilot into a full contract to expand coverage to remaining officers.
Sirota said the pilot demonstrated benefits in law enforcement response on public lands and that request includes cash funds and a partial FTE to cover the program expansion. He said the pilot helped provide footage in incidents where CPW, as law enforcement on public lands, previously did not have recording comparable to other agencies and that the department found the pilot cost-effective enough to roll into an enterprise contract.
No vote occurred in caucus; the supplemental will be addressed on second reading.
