Effective, 12:01 a.m, Thursday, October 1, 2015, no more citations will be issued for red light camera violations in the City of North Miami.

In June, Dr. Smith Joseph, Mayor of the City of North Miami, sponsored a resolution to end red light camera violations. The legislation passed by a majority vote of the city council.

“You elected me to look out for the best interests of the City, as well as the best interests of the residents. We cannot balance the City’s budget on the backs of our residents. We need more police on the streets, not more red light cameras. This is a new day in North Miami,” said Mayor Joseph.
