 How common it is to combine the  video surveillance solution with Wi-Fi hotspot service both serviced by the same network?

To be clear you mean to use a WIFI network to backhaul IP video traffic and provide WIFI?

 #1, originally, your post was:

What P2MP wireless solution would you recommend for a parking lot application?

Required to connect 7 locations, 400 to 800 ft, from nearby rooftop.

Should I use one hub radio to serve all remote poles (7) or split it to 2 hub radios?

The required capacity from each pole: 10-15Mbps.

I am considering cambium ePMP1000 for hub and ePMP Force 180, and heard of Comet and KBC as a potential higher (?) end alternatives.

Why did you change it to what is currently shown? It's confusing.

Cambium is nice stuff, I like them. I think one P2MP hub should be enough. And the stuff you said seems good.

Disclaimer: Never been doing P2MP, only PTP.

If cost is an issue, look at Ubiquiti.

 Vendors that support WISP's can do the setup for you, 

ie. buy as a package with setup included.

How many cameras will be on each pole?   If you say 1 or 2 cameras then one AP should be fine.   If you plan on having 3+ cameras per pole I would have provisions for 2 APs.
