REDMOND, Ore. -- Four months after launching its photo enforcement cameras system and three months after starting to issue tickets, the Redmond Police Department has shifted one portable camera's location.
The transportable photo radar enforcement unit has moved from SW Quartz Avenue at SW Quartz Park to SW Black Butte Boulevard near SW 10th Street for eastbound traffic. The speed limit in the area is 25 mph.
Police announced there will be 30 days of warnings to the registered owners issued before citations go live October 15. The 30 days of warnings will be followed by 90 days of citation enforcement at the new location.
"This area is a residential street, with significant traffic volume and near a school zone," the department said in Tuesday's Facebook post. "Please drive carefully, watch for pedestrians and obey all traffic laws to do your part to make Redmond a safe community!"
The Bulletin reported recently the department issued nearly 2,000 tickets in the first 2 1/2 months of enforcement, with some residents pushing back and one who appealed getting his citation thrown out.
