It doesn’t just stop at words: After Snezana Michaelis’ Gewobag announced in the Spandau newsletter here in March that it would use video cameras against the firecrackers on Obstallee, the housing construction company is getting serious in the 20,000-people district. The tender to the companies has been published these days, please: here is the link. The Tagesspiegel newsletter for Berlin-Spandau was the first to report on this.
[The Spandau newsletter is available in full length with specific district news, tips and dates at leute.tagesspiegel.de.]
What’s in the papers? “The construction project involves the installation of a subsequent video surveillance system in existing buildings inhabited in the entrance and basement areas as well as the corridors and stairwells,” says the requirements, with which IT companies are now being sought. It should start in August 2022. The year 2026 is named as the end of the project.
The aim is a “comprehensible documentation of the movements of people within the entrances and exits as well as the basement, corridor and stair areas in order to be able to record damage, destruction, vandalism or other criminal measures caused by them.” This is what the tender says .
In spring there was talk of a good 50 cameras. The Spandau newsletter learned this from the House of Representatives. The project is politically controversial (data protection), but is supported by the police, who must finally stop the perpetrators.
The police are targeting a youth gang. Young people from other parts of the city should also travel to Staaken with a ‘craving for action’. The residents are desperate, worried about their families, suffering from the constant stress and destroyed technology. Just two weeks ago, the Spandau newsletter reported on the frustration on Magistratsweg, where an elevator has been broken for six months after a fire in the high-rise: “100 apartments, 1 trouble: our elevator has been broken for six months” – here’s the story in the Tagesspiegel .
[Much more than just security: The 10-point plan to save the Berlin housing estate Heerstraße-Nord – here in the Tagesspiegel. “If you like your neighborhood, don’t set it on fire”: That’s what the youth councilor says about fire and frustration in the neighborhood Heerstraße Nord – here in the Tagesspiegel.]
