It's so important to her, when she's not the one behind the wheel, she's watching the app.

There is, however, a long-term plan that could at least make the program revenue-neutral by 2023.

As of now, infractions go through the court system. If the City makes ASE a permanent fixture (which is likely, judging by the positive response from council), the goal will be to receive provincial approval to allow a monetary penalty system that would be handled by the City.

“Then the program would essentially just pay for itself,” said Field."
