Council hears update on mounted speed cameras and secures dispatch backstop
Summary
Solicitor Luke McConville said Targeting Solutions is coordinating with Portage County Courts on mounted speed-camera technology; Chief Clemens reported Streetsboro plans to resume dispatch once staffed and that Ravenna could serve as an interim provider.
The council received an update on plans to add mounted speed cameras and on the Village's dispatch arrangements. Solicitor Luke McConville told the council that Targeting Solutions and their representatives are working with the Portage County Courts to address technology matters related to mounted speed cameras. The council did not take immediate action on ordinance language but recorded the update.
Police Chief Clemens said Streetsboro continues to intend to provide dispatch services once it has sufficient staffing, and that he has secured a quote from Ravenna as a contingency if Mantua ends the Village's temporary arrangement: "Streetsboro continues to affirm their intent to provide dispatch services once they have enough staff." The report was presented as assurance that the Village would have uninterrupted police dispatch services while transitions occur.
