Minutes 03-24-16 MINUTES OF THE RED LIGHT CAMERA HEARINGS
HELD IN COMMISSION CHAMBERS CITY HALL, 100 E. BOYNTON BEACH BLVD,
BOYNTON BEACH, FLORIDA, ON MARCH 24, 2016, AT 9:00 A.M.
James Stokes, Special Magistrate Shana Bridgeman, Assistant City Attorney

Officer Anthony Verrigni, Traffic Infraction Enforcement Officer
1. Call to Order:
Mr. Stokes called the Red Light Camera hearings to order at 9:01 a.m.
Mr. Stokes explained he is the Special Magistrate to preside at the hearings. The
Statute requires a neutral person hear the cases and he does not work for the City. He
has no knowledge of the cases and he has not reviewed any evidence. As a Hearing
Officer, he is not a judge. He cannot rule on the program or its constitutionality. If the
Violator wants to challenge the program in court, they must make their record because
the Violator has to first exhaust their administrative rights.
Violators often comment they were not driving. Mr. Stokes explained the law was
enacted as a civil offense. They have a picture of the vehicle and the allegation is the
car ran the light resulting in the registered owner receiving the notice. If two names are
on the registration, the Notice of Violation is sent to the first name. The notice indicates
if not driving, the owner has to identify the driver so the City can resend the Notice of
Violation. If no affidavit is sent and the owner is found guilty, they can take the matter
up with the driver to recoup the fine.
Mr. Stokes explained the original notice indicates there is a fine of $158. If requesting a
hearing, an administrative fee of$50 is added. If testifying to the case and found guilty,
a court cost of $35 is further imposed. Mr. Stokes offered those wishing to change their
plea to come to the front of the Chamber and receive their Order.
2. Amendments to the Agenda
The following individuals changed their plea:

Beth Joy Kozak Notice No. 1851500172505
Steven Kozak was present.
Anthony Petriello, Traffic Infraction Enforcement Officer, explained on December 3,
2015, at 5:55 p.m., a vehicle registered to the Violator was travelling southbound on S.
Congress Avenue and W. Woolbright Road in the number four lane. After a review of
the electronic evidence and still photographs, Officer Petriello issued a Notice of
Violation on December 14, 2015. Officer Petriello submitted the ATS evidence packet to
Mr. Stokes. The CD contained all the videos and images for today's hearings. Mr.
Stokes accepted the evidence.
Messrs. Stokes and Kozak viewed the electronic evidence and photographs.
Mr. Kozak explained prior to his going through the light, there was a tractor trailer in
front of him. His view of the light was obstructed and the weather was deplorable. He
was travelling safely behind with his children going to a school open house. When he
saw the red light he could either slam on his brakes or continue. He went through the
light and stood by his choice. He was so upset, he took a picture of the truck on his
phone.
Mr. Stokes understood, but noted he was not travelling that close to the truck. When
the light turned red, the truck was almost through the intersection. He agreed the
weather was a factor, but the video showed Mr. Kozak was behind the stop bar when
the light turned red.
Decision
Based on the evidence, Mr. Stokes upheld the citation and assessed a fine of $243,
payable within 30 days.
Kurt Altman Notice No. 1851600024157

Woolbright Road and S. Congress Avenue in the number one left-turn lane. After a
review of the electronic evidence, Officer Verrigini issued a Notice of Violation on
February 2, 2016. Officer Verrigni submitted still images and a video to Mr. Stokes.
Messrs. Stokes and Altman viewed the video and still images.
Mr. Altman gave Mr. Stokes a picture he received in the mail. The picture showed he
turned left when the red lights were on east and west, north and south and the two
green left-turn signals come on. He was turning left when two other cars were turning
left at the same time, so the green arrows had to be on. The photograph was a still
photograph, but the picture he received showed him turning left when two other drivers
were turning left on the other side. He contended the green turn signal had to be on.
Mr. Stokes noted Mr. Altman was facing a red arrow and the vehicles across from him
were turning left, but commented opposing left turn arrows are not always in sync. Mr.
Altman contended the green arrows had to be on. Mr. Stokes watched the video again
and when the photos were enlarged, it showed the arrows were red.
Mr. Altman submitted his driving record to Mr. Stokes. Mr. Stokes explained no points
will be assessed on his driving record or impact his insurance rates.
Decision
Based on the evidence, Mr. Stokes upheld the citation and assessed a fine payable
within 30 days.
Marcus Lamar Wilson Notice No. 1851500180018
Officer Petriello advised on December 11, 2015, at 8:29 p.m., a vehicle registered to the

in the number one lane. After a review of, the electronic evidence, Officer Petriello
issued a Notice of Violation on December 18, 2015. Officer Petriello submitted the ATS
evidence packet to Mr. Stokes. Messrs. Stokes and Wilson watched the video and still
photographs.
Mr. Wilson commented this was not the video or picture he received. The video and
picture he got was from a different date. Had he looked at this video, he would have
paid the ticket. Mr. Stokes reviewed the pictures and commented the pictures were the
same.
Decision
Based on the evidence, Mr. Stokes upheld the citation.
Mr. Stokes recommended Mr. Wilson speak with Sergeant Hawkins to ensure records
did not get crossed with ATS and explained he was looking at information that is date
and time stamped. Officer Petriello searched the system and advised that was the only

Wilson commented he did not want to pay the court fee if he got the wrong video. Mr.
Stokes explained if the court found there was an error, Mr. Wilson could receive a

and stills showed there was a violation.
Adrienne Jill Cohen Notice No. 1851500186015
Officer Verrigini advised on December 17, 2015, at 4:47 p.m., a vehicle registered to the

Boulevard in the number three lane. After a review of the electronic evidence and still
photographs, Officer Verrigini issued a Notice of Violation on December 30, 2015. He

payable within 30 days.
Ms. Cohen advised she would only pay half the fine. She could have been going to her
Foundation and did not remember the incident. Mr. Stokes explained his hands were
tied and the fines are set by Statute.
Theresa Capozziello Notice No. 1851500139915
Officer Verrigini conveyed on October 23, 2015, at 3:13 p.m., a vehicle registered to the

Mr. Stokes and Ms. Capozziello reviewed the electronic evidence and still images. The
light was red 3.1 seconds and traffic was beginning to move towards her vehicle while
she continued to make her left-hand turn. The turn lane arrows were both red.
Ms. Capozziello explained that day she was behind a truck and her last view of the light
was green. As she approached the light she was going to turn, but hit the brakes when
she saw the light was red. She had to choose and went through the intersection. She
commented if an actual officer had stopped her going through the light, she would have
received a warning and not a ticket.
Mr. Stokes agreed the vehicle in front did obstruct the light and recommended backing
off of high profile vehicles.

Michele Lowy Notice No. 1851500182923
Officer Petriello conveyed on December 15, 2015, at 11:26 a.m., a vehicle registered to
the Violator was travelling eastbound on W. Woolbright Road and SW 8th Street in the
number two lane. After a review of the electronic evidence, Officer Petriello issued a
Notice of Violation on December 21, 2015. He submitted an evidence packet to Mr.
Stokes. Mr. Stokes and Ms. Lowry examined the video and still photographs.
Ms. Lowy explained the video shows her son had a blowout. He swerved once past the
light and he pulled over to the side after he was past the light. She had the time he got
the tire and the time AAA was called on Woolbright Road. Ms. Lowry submitted
documents attesting to the blowout to Mr. Stokes. The blowout was just before the red
light. Her son is 21 years old and only knew to pull over.
Adam Lowry, the driver, explained he was 16 when he received his license and Mr.
Stokes noted he was driving for five years. Mr. Stokes thought by continuing through a
red light, the end result could have been much worse, but there were extenuating
circumstances.
Decision
Mr. Stokes dismissed the citation.
Gonzales Bernadeau Notice No. 1851500134239

Boynton Beach, Florida March 24, 2016
Mr. Stokes, Attorney Jacquet and Ms. Achille viewed the video and still photographs.
There was a four-second yellow light and one-second red light.
Attorney Jacquet inquired what Officer Petriello reviewed. Officer Petriello responded
he reviewed the vehicle, the video, the vehicle information, the person's name and the
still images on the ATS system.
Attorney Jacquet asked if ATS was in Palm Beach County and Officer Petriello
explained ATS is the vendor they use for the red light cameras and they are based in
Arizona.
Attorney Jacquet asked if the information was sent to him by ATS or if Officer Petriello
reviewed the information on the ATS system itself and learned Officer Petriello viewed
the information on the ATS system. Once the image is captured on the video, Attorney
Jacquet asked if it was uploaded directly to the ATS system. Officer Petriello
responded it was. After it goes to ATS, then all violations come to the Police
Department and they have access into the system where all the violations are kept.
Attorney Jacquet asked when Officer Petriello accesses the information and video, what
Officer Petriello's role was and learned it was his role to view the video, determine if a
violation occurred. If so, he accesses the information, supplies missing information, he
inputs all the models to the vehicles as they come in, and after he determines a violation
occurred, he issues a Notice of Violation. The Notice of Violation is sent through the
ATS system.
Attorney Jacquet asked if Officer Petriello puts a stamp on the Notice of Violation and if
he mails out the Notice of Violation. Officer Petriello responded he does not physically
mail the Notice, nor does the City of Boynton Beach Police Department. ATS sends out
the violation after Officer Petriello instructs them to do so.
Attorney Jacquet commented when the client is issued a Notice of Violation and nothing
happens within the allotted time, an actual traffic citation is then created at some point.
Officer Petriello responded that was incorrect. A traffic citation is only created unless
Officer Petriello tells the system to create one.
Shana Bridgeman, Assistant City Attorney, objected to the questions regarding a
Uniform Traffic Citation or anything related to that because the matter before Mr. Stokes
is a Notice of Violation and the relevant process is what occurs with the Notice of
Violation, not a Uniform Traffic Citation.
Attorney Jacquet explained he was present for the Notice of Violation. The process of
the citation follows the Notice of Violation and they were not there yet. Attorney Jacquet
asked if Officer Petriello sees the Notice of Violation before it is sent out through ATS.
Officer Petriello responded he does not see the actual paper.

Red Light Camera Hearings
Boynton Beach, Florida March 24, 2016
Attorney Jacquet queried who gives notice to be present at the hearings. Officer
Petriello explained the Violator can request a local hearing. When done, the ATS
system puts together a calendar with the Violator's name and date, and he would know
because he reviews the calendar.
Attorney Jacquet wanted to question ATS on their process and learned no one was
present from ATS. Mr. Stokes explained ATS testified on October 10, 2015. The
process had been put on hold for a while, and in October, officials from ATS were
present to testify. There was an attorney present who cross examined ATS, which was
transcribed and was available through the City. Attorney Jaquet commented ATS
counsel was present in October, but he was not, and there has been lots of testimony
about access to the ATS system, how ATS sends.the Notice of Violation and the
calendar.
Mr. Stokes understood, but advised ATS does not come to every hearing. Attorney
Jacquet inquired how they could proceed without ATS when the Officer had put on the
record how ATS has hands on access or is heavily involved in the process and he has
no opportunity to question them. He did not see how Mr. Stokes could make a ruling
without a full hearing if this was an administrative hearing.
Attorney Jacquet suggested with case law already decided, the judges had said the City
must review and issue from the very beginning, which means the City must have
complete control of the system. He asserted the City did not have control over the
system whatsoever.
Attorney Jaquet thought the testimony was clear the images are captured by a third
party outside of the County, conflicting with Florida Statute. Once ATS captures the
images, the Officer reviews the information. Once they have been reviewed, the private
organization in Arizona, issues the Notice of Violation, sends it to his client and the
officer testified he never physically saw the Notice of Violation. Officer Petriello did not
mail it and it was all done by a third party. Attorney Jacquet asserted it is an unlawful
delegation of police power and if they could not have a full hearing to question ATS on
their process, the hearing was unconstitutional. He requested the opportunity to
question ATS, and there was no way the administrative hearing could conclude or go
forward.
Mr. Stokes asked if Attorney Jaquet subpoenaed anyone from ATS or asked anyone
from ATS to appear. Attorney Jacquet responded he did not, and the record was being
created by the City and ATS had to put on a case. He did not have to subpoena them
to appear. ATS is involved and Attorney Jacquet thought the City should have brought
ATS to the hearing.
Mr. Stokes advised ATS did testify on October 10, 2015, which he takes administrative
and judicial notice of the process as it was explained at that point. Mr. Stokes'
determination is the Notice of Violation is sent manually by ATS, only when authorized

by the Officer. As a Hearing Officer, Mr. Stokes explained he cannot rule on the
constitutionality or legality of the program. Attorney Jacquet differed and commented
the Administrative Officer in Orlando made the same decision Mr. Stokes did, and the
Court overruled it and said the Administrative Officer was incorrect and the case should
not have gone forward because according to Aaron and Hastings and the City of
Orlando, he has the authority to make that the decision.
Mr. Stokes explained they had the hearing in October and he was convinced the issues
that came from the various appellate courts were addressed in the City of Boynton
Beach, that the officers were the ones making the decision on who gets issued a Notice
of Violation and that the vendors were not making that decision. Attorney Jacquet
differed.
Decision
Mr. Stokes explained in this case, factually he is upholding the citation. Attorney
Jacquet made his record, and it has to go to the court.
