Traffic cameras, a hot-button topic for many Redmond residents, will be further discussed at next week’s Public Safety Committee meeting, according to committee chairman and City Council member Hank Myers.

Police officials will provide an update on the city’s controversial pilot program, which began at the start of February, Myers said. At the end of the pilot program, council members will vote to continue or end the traffic camera program — unless the voters get to make the decision.

The public is invited to attend Tuesday’s meeting and get more educated about the topic, which has become the talk of the town since the three traffic cameras and one school-zone speed camera were installed earlier this year.

Traffic cameras were on the agenda at March’s public safety meeting and Myers said he plans to make it part of the agenda every other month during the pilot program so the public can stay informed and updated on the topic.

Myers said most people do not oppose the school-zone speed camera near Einstein Elementary School, but many have spoken out against the traffic cameras.

Union Hill resident Scott Harlan is working on a campaign to collect enough signatures to put an initiative on the ballot that will allow residents to decide the future fate of the traffic camera program, rather than the seven-member council.

Myers said he would like to see the city “look at alternatives to the traffic cameras.””We need to explore and see if there are other ways to get the same results without the traffic cameras,” he said.

The meeting will begin at 4:30 p.m. at the City Hall Council Chambers.
