4a - Supplementary Report - Update to IE25.10 Feasibility of Limiting the Number of Automated Speed Enforcement Infractions an Individual Vehicle Owner can Receive from a Single Camera Location Prior to Receiving their First Infraction in the Mail

Origin
(February 18, 2026) Report from the General Manager, Transportation Services
Summary

At its meeting of July 23-25, 2025, City Council considered IE25.10, regarding the feasibility of limiting the number of Automated Speed Enforcement (ASE) infractions an individual vehicle owner may receive from a single camera prior to receiving their first infraction notice in the mail. Council referred the item for further consideration to the February 25, 2026 Infrastructure and Environment Committee meeting.

 

Following Council's referral of the item, the Province of Ontario enacted legislative amendments prohibiting municipalities from operating Automated Speed Enforcement systems and issuing new Automated Speed Enforcement penalty orders, effective November 14, 2025.

 

As a result of this provincial action, the City no longer has legislative authority to operate the Automated Speed Enforcement program. Accordingly, the matters referred by Council in item IE25.10 are no longer applicable, and the original report is now moot.

 

This supplementary report advises committee of the changes in legislation.
