On page one of the May 1 edition of the Kent Reporter, there are stories about the city taking in $1 million from the school traffic cameras in one year and a story about city park facilities falling apart due to lack of funding.
Hmmm, seems like a problem and a solution right next to one another.
Is there a valid reason some – if not all – of that traffic fine money can’t go to the restoration of park facilities?
The city is looking for creative solutions to revenue issues, so here’s one idea to consider: use the revenue generated by the traffic camera tickets to fund park restoration.
