LIGHTHOUSE POINT – After serving the City of Lighthouse Point for six years as a contract worker, Licata becomes a permanent employee effective October 2009.
Future plans include installing cameras at city parks, and at the entrances to the community to capture the license plates of all vehicles entering and leaving Lighthouse Point.
“The majority of arrests that we are making are of people that are coming in from outside communities,” Licata explained in a Sun Sentinel report. “We’ve got to be vigilant in our efforts to monitor people that are coming and going.”
Both initiatives would be free for Lighthouse Point because Licata plans to use forfeiture funds gained through the department’s partnership with the DEA.
