Common Council sends mayor measure to end school zone speed cameras


Mike Desmond / WBFO News
University District member Rasheed Wyatt introduced a measure in the Common Council Tuesday to end Buffalo's controversial use of speed cameras in school zones. Six of the nine Councilmembers voted in favor of the resolution, enough to override a possible mayoral veto.
Wyatt has said he wants the cameras replaced with radar speed signs and other measures to slow traffic, like speed bumps, that do not include a fine. Motorists can now receive a $50 fine for driving 26 mph or more over the 15 mph speed limit around 20 city schools.
It would became a city ordinance immediately if Mayor Byron Brown signs it, but the mayor continues to support the cameras.
