City officials say the program is aimed at improving safety and modernizing how red-light violations are handled.
"We'd like to see it go to zero," Osborn said, emphasizing that drivers should treat red lights as a full stop, not a chance to speed through.
"It's a civil red-light violation... You'll get a fine, you pay it, and you're on your way," Osborn said.
The penalties are also lower than in many other jurisdictions. The maximum fine for a first offense is $100, compared to more than $400 in some cities, and no DMV points will be issued. The program falls under California's Safer Streets Act, which allows cities to adopt alternative enforcement approaches.
"What makes it important to us is we've been to many crashes, especially in my career, where someone is hurt, seriously injured, or even killed as a result of someone not taking the time to spend a couple extra minutes at a red light versus running it because they're in such a hurry," Osborn said.
