Village staff: speed‑camera program issued about 18,000 warnings; citations followed as program moved live
Summary
Village staff reported the speed‑camera pilot issued roughly 18,000 warnings during the warning period and about 10,000 live citations in the first month after going live. A resident asked about contractor identity and camera range; staff said range varies by device.
Village staff told the council the village's speed‑camera program produced roughly 18,000 warnings during the warning period and "there'll be roughly 10,000 citations issued" in the first month after the program went live, saying "the program's working the way it's supposed to work." The staff member described a decline in daily warnings as the program settled in.
During public comment, a resident identified as Christine asked which company the village uses for the cameras. The staff member replied, "The name of the company is Targeting and Solutions Limited." Christine also asked about camera range; the staff member said range and exact pointing vary by camera. Legal counsel reminded the room that the public‑speaking period is not a formal question‑and‑answer session but that residents may submit requests or questions to the village for a response.
The staff presentation did not provide a specific schedule or location map for camera placement or a uniform range figure; staff said camera performance depends on the device and installation. The council directed residents with technical questions to submit them to the village clerk or police chief for follow‑up.
