Just over two months after Dubuque City Council members approved implementing automated speed cameras in the city, a bill moving through the Iowa Legislature aims to outlaw them entirely.
The county board denied a request from Jensen Capital and Development, of Mitchell, to rezone a parcel of land from agricultural to rural residential and to build 20 lots for two-acre home sites.
Dubuque police seek a speed-monitoring camera system that will include a photo database of speeders and a public website furnishing information about what the cameras capture.
