Council Red Lights Camera Petition
By Pete Gilchrist | June 27Red traffic lights in Chapel Hill could mean more than stop. Michelle Barbee pleaded to the Chapel Hill Town Council on Monday, asking the town to reconsider its decision to place red light cameras on local streets. Barbee and her friend, Shawna Kanarr, gathered 235 signatures from local residents in a petition to keep the cameras off the streets, but that wasn't enough. The motion to interrupt the negotiations with traffic camera contractors failed. The negotiations could mean cameras would be placed in up to 10 intersections in the area.
