The cameras are designed to provide slow -scan <br />video images of traffic conditions at selected County <br />intersections. The traffic images would be sent, via telephone <br />modem, to the County traffic signal computer room located on the 3' <br />floor of the County Administration building. The images would be <br />used to adjust traffic signal timings and improve traffic flow at <br />signalized intersections. The proposed camera locations are: <br />1. 17th Street and U.S. 1 <br />2. S.R. 60 and 58th Avenue <br />No law enforcement activities, such as red light running or speed <br />limit enforcement, are planned with the proposed equipment. The <br />use of video surveillance for traffic law enforcement, while legal <br />in many states, has not yet been approved by the Florida <br />legislature. <br />February 22, 2000 <br />-40- <br />
