St. Cloud Implements New School Zone Speed Camera Program Amidst First Court Challenge
- Meeting Overview:
The St. Cloud City Council addressed the city’s newly implemented school zone speed camera program, hearing its first appeal case involving a citation issued to Mimi Auto Sales LLC. Captain Ed Mateo of the St. Cloud Police Department presented evidence of a vehicle registered to the company traveling at 34 mph in a 20 mph school zone, confirmed by video and photographic evidence. The vehicle’s owner, Carlos Salgado, stated uncertainty about who was driving at the time, as the car is often used by employees or loaned to customers. Salgado expressed a willingness to comply with the citation.
The hearing officer clarified that this program, authorized by state statute two years ago, is new to St. Cloud and urged Salgado to maintain detailed records of who drives company vehicles. The officer upheld the citation, requiring Mimi Auto Sales LLC to pay a $100 fine and $89.49 in administrative costs within 30 days.
