Register Your Security Camera

The North Olmsted Police Department requests your help in deterring and fighting crime. Residents and business owners with exterior surveillance (including doorbell cameras) are invited to voluntarily register the exterior cameras.

We know that North Olmsted is a great place to live and work, and we are constantly striving to improve safety services in our community. By registering your security cameras, you will be providing information that may prove valuable in a police investigation.

Registering your camera does not provide us direct access to your surveillance system. Information collected would allow investigators to know locations of cameras so that, if a crime occurs in that area, police can directly contact the community member for assistance.

The goal of this program is to deter crime and promote public safety through collaboration. All registrants agree to the following:

Conditions and Terms of Use

1. The North Olmsted Police Department does not have direct access to your surveillance system and may contact you regarding your recordings.
2. Any obtained footage containing or related to criminal activity may be collected and used for evidence during any stage of a criminal proceeding.
3. At no time shall registrants be considered employees or agents of the North Olmsted Police Department. This is a voluntary program.
4. Relevant information is reserved for official use by the North Olmsted Police Department and our law enforcement partners. This information will be securely stored by NOPD and will not be released to any member of the public or media.

Video surveillance is one of the best methods for apprehending criminals. Please consider partnering with the NOPD to protect our community. If you are interested in participating in this valuable program, please submit the online form. Questions can be directed to Captain Eric Morgan at morgane@north-olmsted.com or call (440) 777-3535.
