The city of Grand Rapids is moving forward with a controversial plan to use automated license plate readers to help with parking enforcement.
The city commission on Tuesday approved a plan from the Parking Services Department to get bids on an automated license plate reading system.
The city expects to buy just one scanner this year at a cost between $25,000 and $50,000. The goal is to have it on the streets by November.
