Newark moves speed camera to South College Avenue
Newark’s speed enforcement camera has moved to South College Avenue. The camera is located just north of the railroad bridge, near Ivy Hall Apartments, between Holton Place and Ritter Lane. It is aimed at northbound traffic, i.e. cars heading from the area of STAR Campus toward Main Street. The location of the camera is just a short distance past where the speed limit drops from 35 mph to 25 mph. For the first 30 days, drivers caught speeding will receive warnings. After that warning period, speeders will be mailed a ticket. Fines will be issued to any vehicle that the camera captures going at least 11 miles per hour over the speed limit, meaning fines will begin at 36 mph. Fines start at $31 and increase based on how fast the driver was going. Violations issued through the automated system are civil penalties.

"We didn't know we weren't supposed to be doing live music events there, so that is my bad," Forsythe told council members. When hosting a show, Rainbow moves its product display cases outside to make room for people to gather inside. The shows, which are capped at 49 people, start at 6 p.m. and end at 9 p.m. to avoid running afoul of nighttime noise restrictions. Rainbow does not serve food and strictly bans alcohol, meaning the shows are open to all ages. "It really can't be overstated how important it is right now to have safe spaces for young people to go so that they are not out causing trouble," Forsythe said. "I always have myself, somebody who's
