Most Tampa Bay Pools Lack Security Cameras | Tampa News
Description
Two-thirds of public pools in Tampa Bay operate without surveillance cameras, leaving children vulnerable and police investigations stymied by lack of video evidence. St. Petersburg confirmed none of its city pools—including Child’s Park Pool—have cameras, sparking alarm among parents. Only seven out of 21 local governments install such systems, while Clearwater champions them for safety and accountability, at a cost of $2K–$2.5K per unit. Though Florida law doesn’t require cameras and privacy concerns persist, officials debate whether lifeguards alone suffice—or if cameras are essential for security and incident resolution.
