The police chief for the village of Brice — once a well-known speed trap — said he can't remember the last time he issued a speeding ticket. According to Franklin County Municipal Court records, Chief Bud Bauchmoyer and his one full-time officer had as of Friday filed just one traffic ticket in all of 2021 — an assured-clear-distance offense in March. That's quite a change for the village of 93 residents. Brice has used speed-enforcement cameras in recent years to generate as much as three-fourths of its general-fund revenue. In May, the village put a hold on its apparently unlawful civil-violation system for issuing speeding tickets and collecting fines through a third-party vendor.
