In the first month of the village's camera program, 6,600 citations were generated - Elmwood has a little over 2,100 residents.

An amendment was accepted that would require a police officer to be with a traffic camera if it's set up in a school zone. The bill's sponsor, Republican Ron Maag of Lebanon, said he felt that answered many of the ban's critics.
