Baytown RLC suit details battles over red light cameras
The lawsuit alleges Baytown mishandled citizen data by exposing bank account numbers of RLC citation payers and accuses the city of keeping cameras in use despite public opposition. It traces a 2010 ballot push led by Byron Schirmbeck and clashes with the vendor, including petitions, lawsuits, and intimidation claims. The action spanned PACs, depositions, and legal efforts around the November 2010 vote.
