Full Breakdown

Greeley Municipal Code § 16-650, adopted by Ordinance No. 6, 2024, lets the city manager deploy "camera radar", automated speed cameras, to enforce the § 16-351 speed limit in school zones, residential neighborhoods, along streets bordering a municipal park, and on council-designated corridors. The code authorizes no red-light cameras at intersections; Greeley's automated program is speed-only. Signage is required at least 300 feet ahead (§ 16-652). A cited driver gets a mailed notice of violation and may contest it before a photo radar referee, then appeal to municipal court (§ 16-653). Fines are $40.00 for under 25 mph over the limit and $200.00 for 25 mph or more over, doubled in school and construction zones (§ 16-655).

Violations & Fines

Civil penalty, not a moving violation on your driving record: $40 to $200 per notice of violation, doubled in school/construction zones; unpaid fines escalate to a final order of liability against the registered owner.
