City plans speed cameras to enhance school zone safety
During a recent government meeting, officials discussed the implementation of speed enforcement cameras in school and park zones as part of a broader initiative aimed at enhancing public safety. The proposal, which is expected to be operationalized in the coming year, is part of a citywide \"safer streets\" initiative that will involve collaboration across various departments.

The speed enforcement cameras will be governed by state regulations, which outline the parameters for establishing such programs. These regulations include provisions for assisting low-income individuals and stipulate that fines collected from violations will be allocated to traffic and street safety programs.

Council Vice President Forsyth raised concerns regarding the integration of flashing lights with the speed enforcement cameras, emphasizing their importance for effective operation. Chief Loh confirmed that the cameras would indeed be paired with flashing beacons, which are necessary for legal enforcement during designated school zone hours.

The council is now considering the proposal, with discussions ongoing about the specifics of the implementation and the necessary infrastructure to support the initiative.
