prosecutor in an early resolution meeting and potential court time for those individuals that choose to go to trial. POA collections staff will also be tasked with following up on those offenders who have unpaid fines after their due date has passed. Specific numbers have not been released by other Municipalities but initial discussions indicate that there are a significant number of challenges to red light camera violations that are being submitted.

Financial Matters:

If the City was able to obtain amendments to add the City of Windsor as a designated municipality to Regulation 277/99 (Red Light Cameras) and to the future regulation pertaining to automated speed enforcement the following costs are anticipated:

RLC Program – The City would be required to enter into an agreement with the City of Toronto and the approved vendor. Payment to the program and vendor are done through one payment through the City of Toronto.

The Vendor installs, operates, and maintains the cameras and the system and then charges a monthly fee based on a minimum 5-year contract. Other Municipalities have estimated a yearly cost of $52,000 per camera when the contract is entered during year one. The current contract is currently in year 3 and therefore prorated yearly costs are estimated to be in the range of $80,000 to $90,000, per camera until the end of the current contract. At the end of the 5 year contract, each Municipality may renew or leave the program.

Costs for the use of the Joint Processing Centre are based on the number of locations registered and the number of cameras in use. The value is based on the total number of cameras the processing center issues tickets from.

Costs would be offset by the revenue retained per violation by the Municipality.

Table 2, uses data from the City of London and provides estimated cost and revenue data, per intersection where red light cameras are used. In 2018, the City of London reported total revenue of $923,000, which was generated from infractions from 10 cameras.
