Warren council revisits proposal for cameras to catch speeders

WARREN — Several council members say they agree on the need for cameras to cut down speeding violations and possibly increase the city’s revenue, but no one is ready to commit to introducing the legislation.
A previous proposal last June, which would have placed mobile camera vans in school zones, was tabled.
The proposal re-emerged in a meeting today chaired by Safety Committee Chairman Bob Dean, D-at large, and attended by four council members.
Police Chief John Mandopoulos, who favors the cameras, said other areas beside school zones deserve consideration.
