Article 1 - Brantley.
Section 45-21A-10.02 - Automated Photographic Speeding Enforcement System Authorized.

(a) The City of Brantley is empowered to utilize an automated photographic speeding enforcement system to detect and record speeding violations, to issue notices of civil violations by mail, and to prosecute civil violations for the recorded speeding violations which may occur within the corporate limits of the City of Brantley as provided in this article. A civil fine assessed under this article shall not exceed one hundred dollars ($100), and municipal court costs may be assessed in the same manner and in the same amounts prescribed for municipal criminal speeding violations prosecuted as a misdemeanor. An additional fee of ten dollars ($10) shall be added to the Brantley Municipal Court costs authorized to be collected in connection with notices issued under this article. Court costs collected pursuant to this article shall be distributed in the same manner as prescribed by law for the distribution of municipal court costs for misdemeanor violations. The additional ten dollars ($10) authorized by this article shall be paid to the Alabama Criminal Justice Information Center as compensation for record keeping with respect to speeding violation notices issued pursuant to this article.
(b) If an ordinance is adopted for automated speeding enforcement, the City of Brantley shall cause a sign to be posted at each of a minimum of 10 roadway entry points to the city to provide motorists with notice that automated photographic speeding enforcement systems are in use. The sign shall comply with this requirement if it states substantially the following: "AUTOMATED CAMERAS USED IN SPEEDING ENFORCEMENT," or if it otherwise gives sufficient notice.
(c) Prior to operating such an enforcement system, the City of Brantley shall make a public announcement and conduct a public awareness campaign of the use of an automated photographic speeding enforcement system a minimum of 30 days before using the devices. The City of Brantley may place photographic speeding enforcement systems at locations without public notice of the specific location, may change locations without public notice, and may install and move as needed decoy devices designed to resemble photographic speeding enforcement systems.
(d) The city shall post signs warning of the use of an automated photographic device for speeding enforcement within 60 yards of every speed detection device used. Each sign shall be placed at least five feet from the edge of the road or street and shall be placed not lower than two feet and not higher than eight feet.
