Minutes of the Regular Meeting of Council <br />Monday, September 20, 2021 <br />Page 6 <br />of this year or early next year. I don't want to speak for them, but that is something to be aware <br />of. <br />Mrs. Jurcisek stated, okay. Great. Thank you. <br />Council President Schutt asked, any other comments or discussion? <br />Mr. Meyers asked, will you be able to monitor after a month if this is working or not? <br />Chief Matias replied, we will be able to monitor it assuming that I still have access to the ODOT <br />traffic data that we will be able to monitor the data coming in. To say after a month if we can tell <br />if it's working or not, I don't know if that would be enough data. I think this is going to be kind <br />of a longer term to see an impact because we are using data to determine why we are doing it. I <br />think we are going to need to collect data to measure the effectiveness over a little longer period <br />of time than that. <br />Mr. Meyers asked, there's nobody in the immediate area that is doing this right now? <br />Chief Matias stated, not in the immediate area, no. <br />Mr. Meyers stated, Okay. Thank you. <br />Council President Schutt asked, any other comments or discussion? I had one myself as well. So <br />then if somebody borrows an individual's vehicle and is speeding, I am assuming they will take a <br />look at it and go to the registered owner of the vehicle? <br />Chief Matias replied, right. When a person receives a citation, included with the citation will be a <br />transfer of liability form. They just provide who was driving and that will go to the company <br />Gatso and then another citation is sent out to that person. <br />Council President Schutt stated, okay. The other thing too that I saw. There's three different fines <br />depending upon the speed over the limit. The $100, $200 and $300 fines. If someone is ticketed <br />multiple times, will those fees increase, or will it still be those same $100, $200 or $300? <br />Chief Matias replied, in the Ordinance, we just have it set. <br />Council President Schutt stated, okay. And then just one last comment. I agree 100% with officer <br />safety. My son got a flat tire about 2 weeks ago on 90. It was insane how fast people were driving. <br />I was afraid for my life. I was afraid for his life. Two vehicles were on the side of the road because <br />he had his flat tire and then I came to help. It was mind boggling how people would not get over. <br />They could care less that there were two people standing there on the side of the highway. I give <br />full support of this and understand where you are coming from. <br />
