Florida Statute §316.0083 requires counties and cities operating red light cameras to report program outcomes to their governing body annually at a regular or special meeting, allowing for public comment. This report must include the number of violations issued, contested, upheld, dismissed, and paid; the number of Uniform Traffic Citations issued; and a detailed financial breakdown of how collected funds were distributed. The Haines City Police Department, in partnership with its red-light camera vendor, has prepared this report covering the period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, to meet statutory requirements, ensure transparency, and highlight the program’s role in improving road safety.
