Traffic enforcement cameras
Official title: Photo Enforcement Systems
A Yes vote
Restrict traffic-camera enforcement to systems contracted by December 31, 2026, and require recurring local voter approval to continue existing systems.
A No vote
Keep the current laws governing traffic-camera enforcement.
Details that matter
Local governments would need approval at the next regular general election and every 10 years afterward. The proposal includes a contract exception, so it would not immediately ban every existing system.
