The Enfield, CT Town Council held a special meeting on July 13, 2026, which included a detailed presentation by Andrew Noble from Sight Stream on the implementation and operation of automatic traffic enforcement safety devices, such as speed and red light cameras. The discussion covered the legislative framework established in Connecticut in 2024, vendor responsibilities, revenue distribution (with the town typically receiving over 50% of net revenue), and the use of funds for public safety initiatives including potentially funding school resource officers.

Additionally, the council authorized the release of a Request for Proposals (RFP) for redevelopment of several town properties, emphasizing the importance of including commercial or retail components in future developments.

The council also approved funding transfers for social services boards and commissions after reviewing nonprofit applications. Several motions were passed by roll call votes, and the meeting concluded with adjournment.
