PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh officials are partnering with Carnegie Mellon University and the Community College of Allegheny County to try and get about $14 million in federal stimulus money for new security cameras.

The cameras would be placed around the city and at the community college. Officials at Carnegie Mellon would develop programs for using data captured by the cameras.

The city announced the grant application Thursday and said the cameras would operate on a wireless network.

Last year, the city received about $2 million from the federal government to install cameras in some neighborhoods along the rivers.
