The City of Temple Terrace, Florida had grand plans to renovate a shopping center into new and elaborate government offices for the very small city. The city had a referendum, and voters voted against the new city offices. So the city council met, and decided to overrule the voters. In an effort to raise money to pay for the government complex, extra traffic tickets have been issued, and traffic cameras have been installed. These traffic cameras are in violation of the citizens' right to privacy, and represent an overly greedy city government that wishes to tax citizens by accusing them at every turn. Traffic cameras in many cities, including Greensboro, NC have been found to be in violation of the rights of drivers, and should be removed. Update: The city recently sold the building they had planned to renovate because they could not foot the $20 million bill. Red light tickets are still being issued, and plans for new government offices are unknown.
