Creve Coeur red light cameras one year later
On Sept. 12, 2007, the City of Creve Coeur installed its first red light enforcement camera. News 4’s Lisa Manzo takes a look at what some call a safety tool and others a cash cow that puts drivers at risk.

I just sent Creve Coeur City Administrator Mr. Mark Perkins (mperkins@ci.creve-coeur.mo.us) the following email:
*******************
Dear Mr. Perkins,
I just got a “Red Light” ticket in the mail from the City of Creve Coeur in the amount of $100.
Since according to your new ordinance I can’t refuse to pay, I have decided not to spend a dime of my money in the various establishments (gas stations, restaurants, stores, etc.) located within your city until you will lose at least $200 in tax revenue from me. I also will ask other people (trough the power of internet) to respond to your tickets in the same way.
Hopefully it will help you to better understand my feelings in regards to this ordinance.
Regards,

I think it is the best way to “vote” against this ordinance: with my $$$
