Can community security be monitored?

Legal analysis: community monitoring can be obtained, but it must be justified. Surveillance cameras are installed in the community, which belongs to the public property of the owner. Therefore, the community owners have the right to know the events and public affairs in the community.

Legal basis: Article 286 of the Civil Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that the owner shall abide by the laws, regulations and management regulations, and relevant actions shall meet the requirements of saving resources and protecting the ecological environment. For property service enterprises or other managers to implement emergency measures and other management measures implemented by the government according to law, the owners shall cooperate with them according to law. The owners' assembly or the owners' committee has the right to ask the perpetrator to stop the infringement, remove the obstruction, eliminate the danger, restore to the original state and compensate for the loss of any act that damages the legitimate rights and interests of others, such as dumping garbage at will, discharging pollutants or noise, raising animals illegally, building illegally, occupying passages illegally, refusing to pay property fees. If the owners or other actors refuse to perform relevant obligations, the parties concerned may report or complain to the relevant administrative departments, which shall deal with them according to law.
