The City of Daly City has not <br />deployed body -worn cameras and is concerned with the implementation, cost, data retention <br />and policy development. The City of Daly City and the Daly City Police Department do not <br />have enough information to agree with the finding as it relates to the concerns of the other <br />agencies in San Mateo County. <br />F3. The Atherton, Belmont, Foster City, Hillsborough, and Menlo Park Police Departments have <br />budgeted sufficient funds to manage the cost of equipment, data retention, and training. <br />Response: The City partially disagrees with this finding. While the City of Daly City <br />agrees the above mentioned cities have body -worn camera systems, we are not familiar with <br />their budgeting practices and cannot agree without further data. <br />100 <br />
