Quote:  The city hopes the red-light enforcement cameras, if approved by council and installed by April, will generate $320,000 to help fund public recreation programs which could otherwise be shut down.


Ban the Cams note II:  They might even dump Redflex for ATS too who did the "surveys".  No doubt a lot are techincal fouls.

Quote: Finance Director Patrick McLean said the city selected the new intersections with the help of the Arizona-based company American Traffic Solutions.

The firm used a computer program to analyze traffic volumes and patterns across Toledo to determine intersections at which red light violations are most likely to occur, he said.

(Translation: where the most traffic was.)
