SCR 1004 is a resolution that, if approved by Arizona voters, would prohibit the use of photo enforcement systems for traffic law enforcement. The bill defines "photo enforcement system" as a device using radar or sensors linked to a camera to capture license plate images for identifying traffic violations. It amends Arizona Revised Statutes to repeal existing provisions permitting such systems and adds a new prohibition. This measure would directly affect law enforcement agencies and drivers by banning automated traffic ticketing without an officer present.
HCR 2004 is a proposed referendum measure that would prohibit the use of photo enforcement systems for traffic violations in Arizona. It defines "photo enforcement system" as devices combining radar/sensors with cameras to capture license plate images for identifying traffic lawbreakers. If approved by voters, this measure would amend Arizona law to ban such systems, directly affecting law enforcement agencies and traffic enforcement practices. The resolution requires voter approval to become law, as stated in its preamble.
HB 2106 clarifies how Arizona counties can levy a transportation excise tax approved by voters. It sets a maximum tax rate (up to 20% of existing business tax rates) and specifies where collected revenue must go: counties with over 400,000 residents deposit funds into a regional transportation fund, while smaller counties can choose between that fund or a public transportation authority fund. The tax applies to business transactions, electricity, and natural gas use, and must fund transportation projects in the county. This bill modifies existing tax collection rules but does not create new taxes - only defines how existing voter-approved county taxes operate.
