As of last May, there were more than 11,900 unpaid parking tickets, and the city is trying to recover more than $3 million in unpaid traffic-camera violations.
While council members could have voted on the ordinance tonight, they chose to defer on a decision pending the outcome of a proposed amendment to the RedFlex contract which would ask the red light program company to pay for 40 percent of collections fees in exchange for 40 percent of base fines and late fees.
OK, if you're making plans to travel for the upcoming Memorial Day weekend, you can now check out traffic on your computer before you even hit the road! AWESOME.
