The facility will be equipment with security cameras with sound capability. Security cameras will be installed at locations which provide the best vantage point for monitoring purposes. The exterior cameras will capture activities surrounding convenience store as well as parking lot and under fueling canopy. All staff members are advised of the cameras over the cash register and are warned if any sale of alcohol occurs to a minor, it will result to immediate termination. The current technology allows management team to view camera footage in and outside the store in real time from remote location. In addition parking lot lighting will promote safety on the site and facilitate clear pictures from the exterior cameras. The exterior cameras will be visible to customers outside the store, and together with signage prohibiting loitering, will allow management to prevent unwanted behavior, if occurs. 7.
