ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 Leaders at Orlando International Airport (MCO) are considering a plan to increase security as travel demand continues to grow.<\/p>\n
At a meeting on Wednesday, the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority (GOAA) will vote to approve an initiative to assess every security camera on the property.<\/p>\n
The project involves a systematic review and verification process to document the existing field of view for each camera.<\/p>\n
The cameras would be evaluated individually to confirm coverage area, orientation, and any obstructions impacting visibility.<\/p>\n
As part of the plan, workers would seek to close visual gaps that could be exploited at MCO, the seventh busiest airport in the U.S., with 34.8 million passengers each year.<\/p>\n
If approved, the cost for the request would not exceed $186,191.<\/p>\n
Jaren Smith was traveling on Tuesday and said the assessment would be beneficial for all passengers.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it\u2019s a great measure to take,\u201d Smith said. \u201cSecurity is really important, and I think it\u2019s really a great investment as well.\u201d<\/p>\n
The GOAA board will vote on the initiative during a meeting on Wednesday at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n
