Help Keep Elyria Safe
Connect Elyria is a new public safety program enabling the people of Elyria to help keep their community safe.
Your participation will greatly enhance emergency preparedness by enabling police, fire, and public safety professionals to better assess and rapidly respond to criminal activity and emergency situations. It will also enable investigators to easily gather evidence in case of an incident.
LEVEL 1: Register Your Cameras
Let's work together to fight crime! Businesses and residents are encouraged to register their security cameras with Connect Elyria today to help us identify area cameras in the event of an incident. An investigator from the Elyria Police Department will contact you via email if they need your assistance solving a crime near you.
Camera registration takes less than one minute via our secure online portal. Registering your cameras does not allow the Elyria Police Department access to your cameras - it only enables investigators to know a camera is present at your location and easily request video evidence should an incident occur.
LEVEL 2: Integrate Your Cameras
Businesses and residents can take community security one step further by giving the Elyria Police Department direct access to your camera feed in case of a nearby emergency.
All you need is a small CORE device that you plug into your camera system.
Please complete Level 1 (Camera Registry) before proceeding to Level 2 (Camera Integration). If you have previously registered your security cameras, please go directly to Step 2 to purchase CORE devices.
