A. Redfiex Program Financial Information (Coleman) Finance Director Coleman presented an annual report regarding the financial portion of the Redflex Program. From a functional perspective,as ouUined in the annual report provided by the Police Department at the January 23 meeting,the program is succeeding in terms of public educaUon and safery. CurrenLy,the invoices billed rtionthly from Redflex to the City exceed the amourn of revenue generated and paid to the City from fines. ?he City's contract with Redtlex limits the paymerrt on thase invoices to the revenues collected in a given month. There is currently Page 2 of 4 a deficit balance of amounts paid to Redflex as the fines generated under the program are less than the monthly billings. Should ihe revenues generated from the fines exceed the.monthty amount invoiced, those amounts will be applied to previousmonths where the revenue tell short of the invoices amount.

Should the prograrti be discontinued,the staH time wi�l be allocated to other program/projects in the Ciry. As an additional note, should revenues irom theAedflex program exceed all invoiced amounts.not paid and the program costs allocated tor staft costs,those revenues would then be used for treffic calming projects in the neighborhoods.
