Local snapshot (archived 2026-07-03): full-page PDF committed at sources/budgets/_archive/eps-camera-programs-refined-figures/eps-camera-programs-refined-figures.pdf.

Body-worn cameras (BWC): - "Edmonton Police Service is spending $16.2 million to equip its members with body-worn cameras." - "The $16 million is over five years, and includes hardware and software." - So the ~$16M headline = ~$16.2M over 5 years, hardware + software (vendor Axon). - Rollout: ~280 officers Sept 2024; back-end redaction staffing est. 40-50 FTE (ongoing operating cost, likely on top of the $16.2M capital/contract).

In-car cameras (ICC): - "Council was asked to approve $9.2 million over four years to expand the in-car camera program" (2022 reporting; consistent with the ~$9M figure in the 2023-2026 capital request). - Target: 400+ vehicles; pilot had 32 vehicles equipped.

Confidence: high on both headline figures (multiple outlets). Note the two figures likely overlap in time (2022-2027) and both flow through the capital/lifecycle budget.
