NY City Mayor Bloomberg's 2007 State of the City Address Included Digital Crime Fighting With Citizen Support

NY City Mayor Bloomberg’s 2007 State of the City Address, delivered January 17, 2007: “This year, we’ll begin a revolutionary innovation in crime-fighting: Equipping “911” call centers to receive digital images and videos New Yorkers send from cell phones and computers something no other city in the world is doing. If you see a crime in progress or a dangerous building condition you’ll be able to transmit images to 911, or online to NYC.GOV. And we’ll start extending the same technology to 311 to allow New Yorkers to step forward and document non-emergency quality of life concerns holding City agencies accountable for correcting them quickly and efficiently.”
