What does the city do with the money received from red light infractions?

The City of Fife has established a public safety fund to segregate monies derived from the photo red light enforcement program. Expenditures from the public safety fund may only be used for the purpose of paying for costs of the red light enforcement program, including the City’s administrative costs; provided, however, if there are surplus monies in the fund then the surplus monies may only be expended for the following purposes:

  1. Purchase and installation of school zone signs and lights
  2. Pedestrian overpass/underpass design and construction costs
  3. Sidewalk design and construction costs
  4. Streetlight acquisition: operation and maintenance
  5. Signalized pedestrian crosswalks
  6. The design and construction of similar pedestrian safety oriented improvements
