We have a lot of kids here and all the people, and it’s good to have policy,” resident Gabriella Belim said.Others said they are concerned about receiving citations and the cost of the fines.“We hate them, to be honest with you,” Princess Willis said. “They go off even if you just touch, like, right by the line. It’s always all the time. The tickets are astronomical.”Princess, who lives in Maitland, said the cameras also influence where she chooses to drive.“I try to stay over in my area unless I have to come over here because of the red light cameras,” she said.The proposed additions would build on Winter Park’s existing red light camera program.As of August, the city had eight red light cameras operating at six intersections.Over the course of a year, the program generated more than 25,000 violations and more than $3 million in revenue, which is split between the state and the city.City leaders have also said they have seen a decrease in crashes at intersections where red light cameras have been installed.The Winter Park City Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing on the proposed expansion during its meeting at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday.However, commissioners are not expected to make a final decision during the meeting. Tuesday’s hearing is the first of two required readings of the proposal.</div></body>
