City updates: camera opt‑in program, lifeguard training registration and free transit for veterans
Summary
City staff announced a voluntary camera registration program for the real‑time crime center, upcoming lifeguard certification signups, a public movie night and launch of free public transit for veterans effective Jan. 1, 2025.
City staff gave a brief update at the start of the work session on several community programs and service announcements.
Brian McCain, chief of staff, described the City of Pueblo Community Connect program that allows citizens and businesses to voluntarily register privately‑owned security cameras with the Pueblo Real‑Time Crime Center (RTCC). McCain said cameras would not be continuously monitored; instead, RTCC staff could request footage from registered owners by email in the event of a reported incident. Registration details were posted to Pueblo.US under the City of Pueblo Community Connection tab.
McCain also reminded the council that Pueblo Parks and Recreation will hold lifeguard certification classes in January at South High School; the deadline to register is Dec. 19, and registration is available online, by phone or in person. He noted a public movie screening at El Centro and announced that Pueblo Transit will launch free bus and City Lift service for veterans beginning Jan. 1, 2025, with local pickup points and online information posted on pueblo.us.
Ending: McCain closed the update after the brief announcements; councilors asked clarifying questions about unrelated city maintenance activities at the Arkansas River Trail during the report.
