This bill proposes to amend current statutes regarding civil traffic violations and misdemeanor offenses generated by photo enforcement systems. Under the new law, citations for such violations must be signed by the mayor of the municipality where the offense occurred, replacing the current requirement for a presiding judge's signature. Additionally, the bill allows for the mayor to sign the citation electronically.

If a citation is not signed by the mayor, it must be dismissed, and the court is required to notify the individual charged with the violation that the citation has been dismissed due to the lack of the mayor's signature. This change aims to streamline the process and clarify the responsibilities of municipal officials in handling photo enforcement citations.
