Whereas speeding continues to be an issue throughout the neighbourhoods of West Kelowna; and

Whereas the Provincial Government has recently enabled 35 red light cameras around the Province to target speeders; and

Whereas the Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General, Minister Farnworth, was quoted in the May 8th edition of the Daily Courier as saying, “Now we’re adding speed enforcement - because it works,” when talking about photo radar;

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED THAT Council direct staff to draft a UBCM resolution to be submitted for UBCM 2019 asking for Provincial permission to implement photo radar on local roads, at the local government expense.
