Red Light Camera Nightmare is GONE

Resolution is unanimously approved by City Commission

City of Miami Commissioner for District 4 Manolo Reyes co-sponsored a resolution directing the City Manager to terminate the contract with the red light camera operators in the City of Miami, American Traffic Solutions.

“These red-light cameras are essentially another tax, one that the residents of my district cannot afford,” said Commissioner Reyes. “I thank my colleagues and Mayor Francis Suarez for their support.”

City of Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, Commission Vice Chair Ken Russell and Commissioner Wifredo (Willy)  Gort also co-sponsored the resolution. The resolution was unanimously approved by the City of Miami Commission on December 14, 2017.
