COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — Starting next year, anyone found guilty in municipal court who receives a traffic violation in Colorado Springs will be given an additional $20 surcharge on their bill.

Colorado Springs City Council passed this measure on November 11. These funds will go directly to the Colorado Springs Police Department (CSPD) for new equipment for officers, which includes body cameras and tazers.

CSPD estimates this will generate roughly $1.5 million in annual revenue. The surcharge will begin on January 11.
