“Chief Heavey and the GPD understandably like the additional funds that will be used for traffic safety generated by speed camera ticketing. But there are significant issues not addressed by the Chief in his outreach to the community…Maya Tichio of D-7 has done considerable work researching the history of the Town’s involvement with Blue Line Solutions, the operator of the speed cameras in Greenwich. Her analysis includes the CT General Statutes governing such pedestrian safety systems, the financial structure of the contract, the specific sites selected for speed cameras around Greenwich, and the concerns expressed by Greenwich citizens about data security.” – Bill Galvin
