current abatement process have led to extended abatement proceedings, taking months, <br /> and in some cases more than a year, to complete. The current loopholes allow violators <br /> to lengthen the process by faking compliance, making perfunctory efforts to clean up a <br /> property and taking advantage of generous deadlines. <br /> <br /> 5. TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT TOOLS: PHOTO RADAR, PHOTO RED LIGHT <br /> <br /> The City supports giving communities the authority to use photo radar and photo red light <br /> technologies as traffic enforcement tools. The City supports efforts to extend both <br /> technologies to cities on a wider basis. <br /> <br /> 6. FIREARMS REGULATION <br /> <br /> The City supports laws which strengthen reasonable requirements for purchase of <br /> handguns. The City will work to protect its regulatory authority with respect to firearms. <br /> Infringement on these powers reduces the City's ability to protect its citizens from <br /> criminal acts involving firearms and ignores the diversity among communities within this <br /> state. <br /> <br /> 7. LOCAL ABILITY TO DEAL WITH UNSUPERVISED YOUTH <br /> <br /> The City supports local ability to detain runaways and other juveniles who are beyond <br /> parental control and facilitate their referral to appropriate agencies. The City supports <br /> strengthening the ability of the juvenile system to intervene and provide services to these <br /> juveniles. Some services currently are not available to them because they have not <br /> committed "criminal" offenses. This reduces the ability of agencies to provide services, <br /> and provides no incentive for the juvenile to change his or her behavior. <br /> <br /> 8. TRAFFIC SAFETY <br /> <br /> The City supports passage of laws which are practical in their application and will <br /> enhance the safety of the motoring public. <br /> <br /> 9. ENFORCEMENT OF IMMIGRATION LAWS AND COLLECTION OF <br /> INFORMATION <br /> <br /> The City opposes legislation that would broaden the authority and responsibilities of local <br /> law enforcement to conduct interviews to collect information on certain individuals not <br /> suspected of a crime and/or detect and apprehend persons whose only offense is violation <br /> of federal immigration law. The City supports that no changes be made to ORS 181.575 <br /> and 181.850. <br /> <br /> 10.
