City administration said these cameras need to be leased from an approved vendor, which will cost around $1.3 million each year.

Staff expect fines levied under the program will cover its operating costs.

That works out to ~$712 in fines per day per camera. That seems a ridiculous expectation and lease cost tbh.

Does that include that fines are doubled in community safety zones (the areas these cameras will target)?

Yes as ours are around schools.
